Question

Why do the Ulama grant permission for women to attend lectures/ bayaan in public venues when the Sahaabah and Fuqaha had prohibited them from attending even the Musaajid for Salaat?

Answer

The Ulama and the Muftis of our times are largely Signs of Qiyaamah. They are not the upholders of Allah's Shariah nor its Defenders. They spend 5, 6 and 7 years studying big kitaabs of Hadith, Tafseer and Fiqh to become 'halaal' supervisors and inspectors to promote the business empires of non-Muslims and to condone and promote carrion-consumption by Muslims. It has also become their profession to suppress, displace and eliminate the Sunnah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Thus, they grant permission, in fact they advocate and promote, female emergence from the homes to attend bayaans, etc. in flagrant contravention of all the Nusoos on the prohibition. They have clearly lost the Path. They have deviated into error manifest. Mufti Kifaayatullah (rahmatullah alayh) has written a beautiful treatise on this prohibition. We have also translated it into English. Do you have a copy? It is not permissible for women to attend lectures at public venues such as Musjids, halls and the like.
