The Ruling on Teaching a Woman Matters of Her Religion

Question:
In the last of this questioner's questions, he says: Your Eminence, how does a man fulfill his responsibility toward his family by teaching his children Islamic teachings? And if a woman is ignorant of the religion, is it permissible for him to blame her for her upbringing?

Answer:
It is obligatory for him to teach her what she does not know. It is obligatory for him, her father, and her brother to teach her and make clear to her what she does not know. It is also obligatory for her to learn and to attend gatherings of knowledge to benefit from them, provided she is wearing the hijab if the need arises. She can listen to the Qur'an on *Nur 'ala al-Dirb* (Light on the Path), and to the teaching on *Nur 'ala al-Dirb*. There is great knowledge on *Nur 'ala al-Dirb*, there is teaching, and there are useful questions from a group of scholars. There are good lectures and seminars. Her husband should teach her if he has knowledge, and so should her father, her brother, her paternal uncle, and her maternal uncle; they should teach her. She listens in gatherings of knowledge, listens to the Qur'an broadcast, and hears the great good therein. If she goes to the mosque with her husband's permission and hears knowledge, if there are lectures or seminars, and she is wearing the hijab, or if she listens to the Friday sermon, all of this is great good. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
