What is the ruling on a woman working outside her home?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: And upon you peace.
The questioner : Shaykh, I asked you about this roughly four days ago, I think, regarding a woman working outside the house. Shaykh, the call was cut off between us. Can you clarify this for me, Shaykh? I mean, a woman works outside the house and brings in money.
The Shaykh : Shaykh, may Allah guide you. You asked and I answered, and you understood. Why are you repeating the question? I told you that a woman is obligated to stay in her home, and that it is not permissible for her to work outside her house mixed with men. How can you say the communication was cut off?
The questioner : No, I thought it was cut off, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Do you understand now?
The questioner : Yes, may Allah reward you with good, Shaykh. I ask you another question.
The Shaykh : No, there is no other question.
