Which is more preferable for a Muslim woman: going out of the house to memorize the Qur'an in centers, or staying at home to solidify what she has memorized?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is best for the Muslim woman to remain in her home to preserve what she has memorized, because her fundamental place is in the home, and that is better for her in her religious and worldly affairs, as Allah Almighty said: "And abide in your houses and do not display yourselves as [was] the display of the former times of ignorance." And the woman is awrah (a private part that must be covered); if she goes out, Satan tempts her. And a woman's profession in her home earns her the reward of those who strive in the cause of Allah.
