A senior scholar says that it is permissible for women to drive.

Question

A senior scholar says that it is permissible for women to drive. The Hadith which mentions the curse of Allah on females who ride horses is dhaeef (weak) or fabricated, therefore it can not be cited for prohibiting women from driving. What is your comment?

Answer

Iblees has weakened (made dhaeef) the brains of the 'senior scholar', hence he disgorges rubbish. Allah Ta'ala curses women who ride horses. The curse applies in greater degree to women who drive cars in this era of extreme fitnah, fisq and fujoor. The 'senior scholar' fabricates mullock.
