I was wondering if there is a specific hadith or ayah from the Qur'an that says that the sisters must be in a seperate room from the brothers during salah?
Question
For example, if a sister arrives at the masjid after the imaam has started the salah, and she is the only one there, how does she know where in the salah the imam is? inshAllah please respond! JazkAllah khairan, Wasalaam
Answer
Women should pray their Salaat individually at their homes. It is Makrooh Tahrimi for them to pray their Salaat with Jamaat on their own or even pray behind the men. (Ahsanul Fataawa part3 pg.283)

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
