The question

Is it permissible for a woman to work as a computer teacher, knowing that the salary is low, and that she fears falling short in her duties towards her home and the upbringing of her children, especially with a nursing infant and the need for a housemaid, and what is the interpretation of the dreams she had concerning her work?

The answer

There is no objection to a woman working in a profession that suits her nature, provided that she is safe from temptation and adheres to the Sharia rulings, such as wearing the hijab and avoiding mixing with men, and with her husband's permission if she is married. It is better for a woman to stay in her home to care for her children and husband. Visions do not form the basis for Sharia rulings. There is no specific garment called "Sunnah attire." Rather, the Sunnah regarding clothing is that which is customary among the Muslims of a given era and country, unless there is a text prohibiting or recommending a specific item. The negative effects of housemaids participating in raising children must be taken into consideration.
