The Ruling on Circumcision for Women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Circumcision for women?

Answer:
If it is facilitated; the circumciser understands, or the male circumciser understands; then there is nothing wrong with it. It is a recommended practice (sunnah). If it is facilitated for a knowledgeable man or woman to circumcise her, that is the recommended practice.
Q: Leaving it for women?
The Shaykh: If it is left, there is nothing wrong with it. If a circumciser is not available, if a skilled person who knows how to do it is not available.
