Women in the Mosque

148 questions

  • Is it valid for a woman to pray behind a man in the mosque, where she can hear his voice and she is in a designated area for women while he is in a designated area for men? And is it obligatory for the woman to call the Adhan if she intends to pray behind the man, or for the man to do so?

  • What is the ruling on one who prays the Sunnah of "greeting the mosque" out of embarrassment from people, and abandons the sin of looking at women in front of people; and is that considered major polytheism (shirk akbar) in both cases?

  • Why is a woman not permitted to go to the mosque to perform the Eid prayer?

  • Is it permissible for men to pray behind women who are praying individually in a single row, especially when there is a shared prayer room?
