I am from India and currently in America but when i was back there in a lot of the masjids women were not allowed to attend the Jummah prayer and I have heard from some people that it is like that in some places in pakistan also. Can someone explain to me why this is? It has been bothering me for a long time now and i haven't been able to find an answer!!!







:w:
 
:sl:

i think it india pakistan culture
rightfully women should not be prevented from going to the masjid

dont worry over here its same :( if i went to the masjid i would be doing somethign *haram* and i would be a *cursed woman*

thats the indian masjids though.
now there is a grand masjid about 25mins away and theres separate section for women to pray ..never been...yet

i think it should be allowed even if its a small room for women..we should be allowed to pray. i mean kafir men...who are not clean..they are allowed..they are WELCOMED big time but women..no way
 
Assalamu'Alaykum

i dont see whats wrong with women going to the masjid? As long as they are dressed properly and coming for the right reasons... The sahabeyats used to do it, why cant we?
 
yes sis thats true, though in ome country inequality and discrimination is still at its peak
 
i prefer reading at home
whats the point of women going out to pray when praying at home is much better for em and they get more reward for praying home

not all do tht !

didn't u read tht link i gave ??
it has some points :
So its "Better" for a woman to pray at home....


Salam

thats right, it is preferable in Islam for women to pray at home, but I think going to the mosque on Jumma so to hear the khutbah is a very good thing, and women should not be prevented from doing so.

Nevertheless, every mosque should have atleast a small room for sisters, in case she was out of her house durin prayer time. Happend with me in India, i went with my sis to a clinic coz her daughter was so sick, it was maghrib prayer time and I just didnt want to miss the prayer, i looked around and didnt see one suitale place for prayer...so I went to nearby mosque, of course they didnt have a ladies section, I saw a certain place for kids to pray, so I went and stod there.. :D ..kids ran away from me thinkin that i was some crazy girl.....some adults gatherd behind me and I heard them whisperin in all worried voice...and I kept tellin myself, no one can stop me from enterin and prayin in Allah's house...Alhamdullila..I managed to pray without faintin... :p

well, see i did some more research and what i found out was that once idia and pakistan were one country and there were muslims and hindus. Later the two nations split up into what we now call india and pakistan and from what i hear, in the hindu culture women aren't really allowed to do much and i'm guessing that the hindu culture got mixed in with islam and i beleive women should be allowed to go to the mosque, espessially on jumaah prayer to hear the khutbah and i feel it isn't right to not allow women into the mosques. Inshallah we will learn and soon some changes will be made.

To the Masjid. I guess the reason they don't let women in to the masjid is because they don't know. They just always thought women wern't allowed in the masjid, and "some changes will be made."
 
Since when were women not alloed in a masjid? That's just crazy. Especially for a muslim country.
:w:
 
I heard from like three or four people that it was like that somewhere in pakistan(i'm not from pakistan so i'm not sure where) and in india it is like that in most places.
 
:sl:

yes it is very much an india pakistan culture thingy
 
Asalamu Alaikum

It isn't a culture thing, it's been put into action as you can see from the hadith brother Zak kindly posted.

Besides, women are so loud these days.

*women are so loud nowadays*

so does that mean they should be totally banned
men talk in the masjid too..not only women
 
Asalamu Alaikum

Try keep a cool head for once and think twice about what I said.
 
:sl:
ive thought over what you said and i still dont see why women should be banned
put it this way

we have a lot of muslim men.
how many actually go to the masjid?
the devoted
not all of them
now women...do all women pray their salah? will all women go to pray in the masjid....? no
which women would be going most?
 
Asalamu Alaikum

i still dont see why women should be banned
Hmm, is that what I said now? I don't think you have thought over it again.

In fact, that last comment has nothing to do with what's on the agenda here. So how in the world do you think you have understood what I said? Think about it.
