Ruling on Studying in Mixed-Gender Universities
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Please clarify for us the ruling on studying in mixed-gender universities; because some people permit it out of necessity—may Allah reward you with good for us?
Answer:
It is not permissible to study in mixed-gender universities; because of the great danger and the causes of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) involved in that.
We ask Allah to guide the Muslims to abandon that, and to have each gender learn separately; to block the means to fitnah (trial, discord or temptation), to be cautious regarding the religion, and to cooperate in righteousness and piety.
And success is from Allah.
