A Muslim women's team is preparing to climb Mount Kilimanjaro.

Question

A Muslim women's team is preparing to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. They are calling on females to join. Is such an event permissible?

Answer

When it is not permissible for women to attend even the Musjid for Salaat despite being fully draped in proper Islamic garb, how can it ever be permissible for them to journey to a foreign country to climb Mount Kilamanjaro? The women who are contemplating this haraam event can not be Muslims. Perhaps they were born in Muslim homes. But at heart they are not Muslims. They are accursed munaafiqeen. It is unthinkable for Muslim women to think of this haraam outdoor event which consists of a number of sins.
