Touch on a topic that is
very, very touchy in certain places
in England,
especially in places like Leicester where you find
that
every Ramadan
there is a kind of commotion amongst the
communities.
Is it
allowed for the woman to go and pray
the Jama'ah?
Is it allowed for her to go to
the Masjid
and attend a congregational prayer,
for Taraweeh?
Or should we even provide that facility?
Is this something that the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam did or did not do?
Should we be providing
a facility for the women?
And just generally the woman just going out
to the masjid.
And we want to, inshallah, bring a balanced
position on this issue so that everybody is
upon clarity
from the matters
that the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam talked about
and obviously anytime there is a dispute Allah
Subhanahu Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala told
us,
if you ever dispute in any man then
take it back to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
and His Messenger SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam if you
are people that believe in Allah Azzawajal in
the last day
that is good, Waasannu Taawela.
Sheikh Muqbil Bin Hadi
which is a compilation of the hadith Mimalasaf
Sahihain.
Mimalay Safih Sahihain, he compiled
a book where he brought a hadith
that is not in al Sahihainin Bukhari in
Muslim,
but they are authentic narrations.
And the reason why I'm specifically mentioning this
book is because
the Sheikh, the Imam, Muqt Bilhardil Waadhiyah brought
a chapter in,
where he brought the eye of Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala, Woman Azzalamu Mi'min Mena Amsajidullah,
and who is more unjust than the one
that prevents
people from going to the House of Allah
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala?
Then he brought the Hadith
to maybe
make it more specific
and explain it further.
When the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam he said,
Laatam Nahuw
Ima Allahima Sajd Allah,
do not
prevent the female slaves
of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala from going to
the Masjid.
It is incorrect. It is haram for the
husband
to stop his wife from going to the
Masjid if she wills, but
waliakhrujna
wahunnatafilat,
they should leave
while they are unbeautified.
And he came in a narration
by Ibn Khuzaima Rahimahu Ta'ala
the Prophet The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said
their houses are better for them,
so you have the father and the Mafudul,
firstly we have to understand is it permissible
for her to go? The answer is yes,
without the shadow of a doubt,
because the Prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam commanded the
husband not to
prevent his wife from going, but then you
have the issue
which one is better and which one is
not better,
and it's not permissible for
someone to enforce
the father over the mafdul upon an individual,
that which is more preferred over that which
isn't preferred,
as long as the matter is not Haram
or there isn't a clear or there's a
clear prohibition on there,
and also Abdulai Namas Uddur radiAllahu anhu
he narrated Hadith upon the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam, he said
The prayer of a woman in her
home
And here the intended purpose by bait is
her room, like her bedroom.
It is more better
it is more better
than her prayer that she does in a
and the intended purpose by
is, you know when you come into the
house
and the door
brings you into maybe the living room, you
find that some doors are connected straight into
the living room and you walk straight in.
So her doing actually in her bedroom is
better than her doing it
into the main room that is attached to
the door.
Then the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Salam said,
and her prayer in her
and the Magdha is a
room that you normally put your valuables in
there,
it's better than the Salat that she does
in her room and the hadith was narrated
by Imam Abu Dawood
and also
Imam Atir Mirrahima Mutta'ala was authenticated by Sheikh
Al Bani Rahim Muhammad Allahu Ta'ala Ajma'in.
So as you can see, the more
concealed
a woman is even within a house it
is more better for her.
So you have the issue now, is it
permissible for her to go out to the
Masjid? Am I allowed to stop her? Am
I allowed to stop my wife from going
out? The answer is no, but she needs
to realize oh this is more better for
her and we should strive
to try and obtain that which is more
of a reward and that which is more
better in the eyes of Allah Subhana Wa
Ta'la
and at the same time when the woman
goes out in which way does she go
out?
The prophet
specifically mentioned to us in the hadith,
they should leave while they are unbeautified.
Under this will go wearing
clothes that attract attention.
Wearing maybe
bangles, which will attract the attention of men.
Wearing makeup
which goes under beautifying yourself,
wearing perfume, the Prophet Sallallahu
Alaihi
Wasallam
said
Any
woman
now
that
wears
perfume
and she goes past a group of men
and they smell her, she's a fornicator.
The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said this and
it was narrated by Imam Abu Dawood Rahimhanahu
Wa Ta'ala.
So when a woman goes out, she goes
out in a according manner
based upon the Sharia and beautified not wearing
makeup, not wearing perfume, not beautifying herself, well
the only time she should beautify herself is
in front of her husband
and if she is sitting around women,
it's perfectly permissible for her to wear whatever
she want in front especially in front of
the husband. Rabi is
recommended that she beautifies herself as much as
possible
and it should be inside the house, but
this is Safitna today that we have
which is very very problematic.
And this was from the affairs of the
Jahiliya, the women of the Jahiliya, how they
used to go out displaying
themselves
and not covering themselves properly.
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala He told us in
the
Quran and abide yourselves in your home and
do not display yourselves,
expose yourselves just like you used to expose
yourself in the state of Jahiliya.
So we have come to know now a
woman now exposing herself and displaying herself
is from the matter of the Jahiliya and
the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi was telling me told
us, the most hated people
with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
are 3 people, and from those that were
mentioned, wamuptarifilIslam
is sunnatal Jahiliyyah and someone that tries to
come into Al Islam and seek the way
of the people of Jahiliyyah.
Brothers and sisters, Wallahi,
come back to religion.
We're not here to bash the people, all
I'm trying to make you away is the
Akaam of Sharaiyah
where Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is messenger salallahu
alaihi wa sallam mentioned keep us balanced as
possible without favoring or following our desires
and it's important that we know this.
We all make mistakes,
whatever sin we have done
the door of repentance is always open. Allah
says in
those servants who have transgressed against themselves
do not lose hope in the mercy of
Allah Subhanahu wa'ta'ala
Allah forgives all sins whatever sin it might
be, even if you fornicated with a 1,000
men
but the guy has slept with so many
girls,
whatever he's
done, whether it is even
frustrating to
a grave, whatever it might have meant,
the door of Repentance is always open. That's
how Rahim Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, we're just
here to remind ourselves
firstly and then remind our brothers and sisters
secondly,
Reminds for any that Reminds me that Reminds
me that Reminds me that Reminds me that
Reminds me that Reminds me that Reminds me
that Reminds me that Reminds me that Reminds
me that Reminds me that Reminds me that
