The Ruling on a Woman Praying Tarawih in the Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The first message in this episode is one that reached the program from Sudan, sent by one of the female listeners who used the initials (T. A.) as a code for her name. Our sister has a collection of questions, one of which asks and says: What is the ruling in the Shari'ah regarding a woman praying Tarawih in the mosque?
May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance. As for what follows:
The original ruling for a woman’s prayer is that her home is better for her and is the best for her, as stated in the hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). However, if she sees benefit in praying in the mosque while maintaining modesty and covering herself, because it is more enlivening for her, or because she listens to the benefit from the scholarly lessons, then there is nothing wrong with it, and there is no blame on her, and praise be to Allah. It is also good because of the great benefit in it and the enlivening of righteous work. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
