Question:

 

Salam mufti sab I have a question regarding Taraweeh and using a speaker.

 

I and my cousins are leading at home and the men pray in the basement, is it ok for the ladies to pray upstairs and we connect a Bluetooth speaker?

 

Is it ok that the women pray upstairs with us and we the men pray downstairs?

 

 

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

 

This will be permissible as long as they are not in front of the imam, if they are in front of the imam the salaah of the followers will not be valid.1

 

 

Only Allah knows best
