Question
Is it permissible for a woman to be in charge of an Islamic organization? The imam of our Musjid works under a female principal of the maktab.
Answer
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
"Never shall prosper such people who hand their affairs to a woman."
It is not permissible for a woman to be the head of an Islamic organization. The imam who works under a female principal is a cuckold/ dayyooth. It is not permissible.
