Women performing salaah in the Haram
Question
When a women visits Makkah and Madina, would it be better for her 2 spend most of her time in the Haram and perform her salaahs behind the imaam OR should she only visit the Haram when she intends to make tawaaf and stay in her room majority of the time?
Answer
Visit the Haram at the time of tawaaf and perform your salaah at your residence. When this was recommended to the women in the time of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) then this would obviously be the recommendation for the women of this time, in fact even more due to the fitnah and corruption.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
