Question

Can a thirteen year old girl play sports? If yes, then what are the things she should keep in mind while practising or playing?

Answer

The type of sports that are played nowadays is really shameless and un-bashful. A girl after the age of nine should remain within the home. Let her recreation be within the home.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
