Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 196/196=M/1429)

(1) The non-Muslim women are like strange men; therefore Muslim women should not uncover their hair to non-Muslim women:

والذمیۃ کالرجل الأجنبی في الاصح فلاتنظر إلی بدن المسلمۃ (در مختار)

(2) It is not right.

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best

Q. I have two questions: 1. it is often said that if a woman leaves her hair uncovered angels do not participate in that gathering.is there any basis of this in shariah? 2. it is m understanding that according to the ahnaf,when women are performing salah in jamaat it is necessary for the imam to make niyyat for the women otherwise their namaz will not be correct.this is not the view of hanaabila,shafi'iyya and maalikyyah, hence the imam ul haramayn do not make such a niyyah before their salah..does this consequently mean that the salah women offer in the haramayn shareefayn are not valid and need to be repeated? 2128 views
