Question:
As-salamu ´alaykum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuhu honorable Mufti, I
have a question: can a woman become Muftiyyah?
And there are some Hanafi Darul Ifta for women?
Thank You very much
Kind regards wassalam
Answer:
Just as a woman may study to be a doctor, solicitor, school teacher etc. she can also study to be a Hafizah, Alimah and Muftiyyah.
Islamic knowledge is not restricted to men only.
Furthermore by the grace of Allah all mighty we in Darul Ilm Birmingham offer the Ifta course which is open to both brothers and sisters.
For further details in regards to the course and enrolment please refer to the following link:
