00:00:01--> 00:00:04

Where should a woman pray?

00:00:05--> 00:00:07

I think we've answered partly the answer to

00:00:07--> 00:00:07

this question.

00:00:08--> 00:00:10

At home or in the Masjid,

00:00:10--> 00:00:13

if she prays at home, can she lead

00:00:13--> 00:00:13

the congregation

00:00:14--> 00:00:16

or a congregation of women?

00:00:16--> 00:00:19

It's mentioned in Sayid Tarkib, hadith number 336,

00:00:20--> 00:00:22

where the beloved prophet said

00:00:24--> 00:00:24

that

00:00:25--> 00:00:26

the best mosque

00:00:27--> 00:00:27

for a woman

00:00:28--> 00:00:30

is her enormous

00:00:30--> 00:00:31

room enormous

00:00:32--> 00:00:33

chamber.

00:00:33--> 00:00:35

And the best place for a woman to

00:00:35--> 00:00:36

pray

00:00:37--> 00:00:39

is her inner room. That's the best.

00:00:39--> 00:00:41

And in another hadith of

00:00:42--> 00:00:45

Musa Ndehmad, pound number 6, hadith number 27202,

00:00:46--> 00:00:48

which also mentioned in

00:00:48--> 00:00:49

Sayyat Turgi,

00:00:50--> 00:00:52

hadith number 335.

00:00:53--> 00:00:54

Once a lady

00:00:55--> 00:00:56

asked the prophet, I would love to pray

00:00:56--> 00:00:57

with you,

00:00:58--> 00:01:00

the lady said. And the prophet replied, I

00:01:00--> 00:01:02

know you'd love to pray with me, but

00:01:03--> 00:01:04

your prayer

00:01:04--> 00:01:05

in a inner room

00:01:07--> 00:01:09

would be better than praying in your house.

00:01:09--> 00:01:11

The prayer in your house

00:01:12--> 00:01:14

would be better than praying in the courtyard.

00:01:15--> 00:01:18

Your praying in your courtyard would be better

00:01:18--> 00:01:19

than praying in the mosque

00:01:20--> 00:01:21

where you live,

00:01:22--> 00:01:23

where around your people.

00:01:23--> 00:01:26

Your praying in the mosque where you live

00:01:26--> 00:01:28

around with people is better than praying in

00:01:28--> 00:01:29

my mosque.

00:01:30--> 00:01:32

That means for a woman, the best prayer

00:01:32--> 00:01:34

is the inner room. Oh, sure. And the

00:01:34--> 00:01:35

way, Saddid, that

00:01:35--> 00:01:36

praying

00:01:37--> 00:01:39

in your room is better than house, house

00:01:39--> 00:01:41

better than the courtyard, courtyard better than the

00:01:41--> 00:01:43

mosque in your area, then mosque better than

00:01:43--> 00:01:45

the mosque of the prophet. Though the prophet

00:01:45--> 00:01:47

said, just mentioned in the same Muslim.

00:01:48--> 00:01:50

Model number 2, hadith number 3 to 10

00:01:51--> 00:01:51

that

00:01:52--> 00:01:54

praying in my mosque

00:01:55--> 00:01:55

is equivalent

00:01:56--> 00:01:58

to a 1,000 prayers.

00:01:58--> 00:02:00

That means, if you pray in the mosque,

00:02:01--> 00:02:03

it is equal to praying a 1,000 times

00:02:03--> 00:02:05

in any other mosque.

00:02:05--> 00:02:08

But this Hadith is mainly referring to the

00:02:08--> 00:02:08

men

00:02:09--> 00:02:11

because no 2 say Hadith can contradict. So

00:02:11--> 00:02:12

this Hadith mainly refers to the men. For

00:02:12--> 00:02:14

the women, the best place

00:02:15--> 00:02:17

in the house especially her inner room

00:02:18--> 00:02:18

and

00:02:19--> 00:02:19

there's a hadith

00:02:20--> 00:02:23

in Sunan Abu Dawood volume number 1

00:02:24--> 00:02:26

book of salah hide number 591

00:02:28--> 00:02:30

Umya warka, my love will be with her.

00:02:31--> 00:02:32

She comes to the prophet and says that

00:02:33--> 00:02:34

I would like to have more than in

00:02:34--> 00:02:36

my house and the prophet gave her permission.

00:02:37--> 00:02:39

The next Hadith, Sunana Boudaud, worm number 1,

00:02:39--> 00:02:42

Waqas Salah, hide number 592. It says that

00:02:42--> 00:02:43

Muhammad Sallallahu Salam

00:02:44--> 00:02:47

given to a house after appointing the mountain

00:02:47--> 00:02:50

and he asked her to lead the prayer

00:02:52--> 00:02:54

in congregation. And the woman in the house,

00:02:55--> 00:02:56

they joined

00:02:56--> 00:02:59

her. And the narrator says that he saw

00:02:59--> 00:03:00

the mod then. He was the old person.

00:03:02--> 00:03:03

It's for the mission

00:03:03--> 00:03:05

in Asai Hadith of

00:03:06--> 00:03:06

Beharqi,

00:03:06--> 00:03:08

Hadith number 1922,

00:03:08--> 00:03:09

Hadid

00:03:09--> 00:03:11

Aisha, who's

00:03:11--> 00:03:14

the wife of the prophet, she says that

00:03:14--> 00:03:15

she led the congregation

00:03:15--> 00:03:16

of the woman.

00:03:17--> 00:03:18

She was the imam,

00:03:18--> 00:03:20

but she stood in the middle of the

00:03:20--> 00:03:20

row.

00:03:21--> 00:03:22

And another Hadith

00:03:23--> 00:03:25

in the sunnah of Ibn Abi Shai ba,

00:03:25--> 00:03:26

Hadith number 4953.

00:03:27--> 00:03:28

Say Umay Salma, who was also the wife

00:03:28--> 00:03:30

of the prophet, Mela Abi.

00:03:30--> 00:03:32

Even she said that she led, she was

00:03:32--> 00:03:34

the Imam of a congregation of women.

00:03:35--> 00:03:37

And she was standing in the center

00:03:38--> 00:03:40

of the first row. So here indicates that

00:03:41--> 00:03:42

the women,

00:03:43--> 00:03:43

they

00:03:44--> 00:03:45

can pray,

00:03:46--> 00:03:48

but it is better for them to pray

00:03:48--> 00:03:49

in the inner room

00:03:50--> 00:03:52

better than going in the mosque. But they

00:03:52--> 00:03:53

are permitted to go in the mosque as

00:03:53--> 00:03:55

we discussed Yeah. Earlier yesterday.

00:03:55--> 00:03:57

That praying in the mosque is permitted,

00:03:57--> 00:03:59

but for them, the inner room is better

00:04:00--> 00:04:01

than the house, the house is better than

00:04:01--> 00:04:03

the courtyard, courtyard better than the

00:04:03--> 00:04:06

mosque close to them, than the mosque of

00:04:06--> 00:04:06

the prophet,

00:04:07--> 00:04:08

but they can pray they can go to

00:04:08--> 00:04:10

the mosque. If they pray at home, they

00:04:10--> 00:04:11

can have a congregation.

00:04:12--> 00:04:14

There's no problem at all, and a woman

00:04:14--> 00:04:15

I said it.

00:04:14--> 00:04:15

I said it.
