Is it permissible for an Islamic association in France to organize a protest in front of the municipality to demand a place for prayer after it became impossible to rent one at a suitable price, given that the current prayer hall is full and lacks safety conditions, and knowing that only men will participate and banners will be raised?

The answer

Previously, the ruling on organizing demonstrations and the legitimacy of peaceful protest stand-ins to claim rights have been explained. Some scholars who prohibited demonstrations have permitted them in such circumstances. Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen mentioned the permissibility of demonstrations in non-Muslim countries if rights cannot be obtained except through them.
