Is it permissible to go to the mosque or a gathering of dhikr for da‘wah or to receive knowledge without the permission of one's father, who might prevent it, in order to renew one's faith due to the surrounding tribulations, and is it permissible to go secretly?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A woman, before marriage, is under the guardianship of her father. Therefore, it is not permissible for her to leave the house, whether for the mosque or elsewhere, except with his permission, because obedience to the father is obligatory as long as it does not involve disobedience to Allah. It is recommended to listen to the Holy Quran Radio and the program "Noor ala al-Darb" (Light on the Path) to benefit from the knowledge of scholars.
