A Woman Praying in the Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: A woman asks and says: Is it permissible for a woman to pray in the mosque while she is covered and modest, has not applied perfume, and is not displaying her adornment, and she intends thereby the face of Allah , except that her husband is not pleased with it? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
A: It is permissible for a woman to pray in the mosque with covering and without perfume, and her husband has no right to prevent her from doing so if she adheres to the Shari'ah etiquettes; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 566 And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 442a It is agreed upon that it is authentic.
So if she goes out modestly and without perfume, there is no harm, even if her husband is not pleased, due to the two hadiths mentioned. And if she prays in her home and does not go out, that is better for her purification and to stay away from the causes of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation); due to the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Abi Dawud 566.
