Aslam

general Sign in to save

Is it better for a woman to pray alone, or behind her husband who is clean-shaven and lets his garment hang down below his ankles?

Praise be to Allah.We

put this question to Shaykh ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Jibreen, may Allaah preserve

him, who answered asfollows:

We think that it is better for her to pray alone.

The basic principle is that a faasiq (rebellious evildoer) should not lead

others in prayer, and it is makrooh to pray behind him. And Allaah knows

best.
