The ruling on a woman praying the Fajr prayer after the first adhan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner from Yemen (H. N. A) says: Is it permissible for a woman to pray the Fajr prayer immediately after the first adhan, before the iqamah and before the second adhan, given that I have heard that a woman does not have an iqamah?
Answer:
It is obligatory for men and women not to pray Fajr until after the true dawn has appeared, after the true dawn has appeared, and after the adhan for Fajr. As for the first adhan that is called at the end of the night to alert people, this does not mark the entry of the prayer time, and the obligatory prayer is not prayed after it. However, when the mu'adhdhin who calls the adhan upon the appearance of the true dawn, upon the morning, calls, then men and women pray. As for the first adhan before the true dawn, that is for notification only that the dawn is near, so that people know it is near. The one who prays witr prays witr, and the one who gets up performs wudu.
And as for the obligatory prayer, it is not prayed until after the true dawn has appeared, for both men and women. A woman does not have an iqamah or an adhan, but when the dawn appears and the mu'adhdhin calls, and she hears the adhan, she delays for a while and then prays. She should not rush, so that some time passes as a precaution. If a quarter of an hour, a third of an hour, or half an hour has passed, she prays Fajr. She is not required to be bound by the mosques or to hear the iqamah. No, her prayer is independent; she prays whether she hears the iqamah or not. When the adhan is called and a time has passed after the adhan, a quarter of an hour or a third of an hour as a precaution, she prays the obligatory prayer. And so it is for Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good. Some women, O Shaykh, wait until the men leave the mosques?
The Shaykh: This has no basis. A woman's prayer is not tied to the men. She prays in her home when the time enters and the mu'adhdhin calls, and praise be to Allah. The men have their prayer, and she has her prayer in her home, not tied to the men. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you.
