\n\tQuestion:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWomen holding their own Jamaat<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"Bismillah\"<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIt is Makruh Tahrimi for women to hold their own Jamaat (congregation), however their salah will be valid.  It is stated in the famous book of Fiqh, Durrul Mukhtar “It is Makruh Tahrimi for women to hold their own Jamaat prayers even though if it is the tarawih prayers.”  (Raddul Muhtar p.305 v.2)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIt is also Makruh Tahrimi for a woman to lead the Jamaat in all prayers i.e. Fardh, Nafl and Wajib salah etc.   (Fatawa Hindiyyah p.85 v.1)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWith regards to your question, it is preferable to read salah individually and not in congregation with other women although the salah will be valid if read in congregation. (Raddul Muhtar p.306 v.2)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tSome people cite the hadith of Sunan Abi Dawud (P.94 v.1) in which the permissibility of women holding their own jamaat is derived.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe hadith is a ‘Khabr Wahid’ and a ‘Khabr Wahid’ narration is not acceptable in favour of all those strong hadith of women not holding their jamaat.  Furthermore, this ruling of women holding their own Jamaat applied at the beginning of Islam.  (Bazlul Majhood p.209 v.4)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOnly Allah Knows Best<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
