In Islam, the Woman prayer (Arabic: صلاة المرأة) represents the peculiarities, specificities and characteristics of the Islamic prayer (salat) that is performed by a woman.[1]

Presentation

The prayer that a woman performs in Islam to draw close to God is considered equal to the prayer a man, performs.[2]

Menstruation

God does not hold a woman accountable for not performing the obligatory prayer on her, because He is the One who granted her a clear and binding permission not to pray during her menstrual cycle and not to fast, and she is neither counted nor punished for her lack of prayer.[3][4]

But if the woman suffers from runny and flowing blood (istihadha), then if the time for menstruation cycle comes, she should leave the prayer until the usual time for her period ends, and if the period ends, she should do the washing (ghusl) from the blood and then perform the usual obligatory prayer (fard).[5][6]

Voice

Clapping

A woman's voice is not a shame (awrah) because the Quran permitted talking to the Muhammad's wives from behind a veil (hijab), despite the emphasis on the necessity of piety (taqwa) while talking to women.[7][8]

Some of the jurists who prevent women from speaking out during the prayers (loud prayer [ar]) quoted the hadith of Abu Hurairah as evidence:[9]

Arabic hadith English translation

Arabic: « التَّسْبِيحُ لِلرِّجَالِ، وَالتَّصْفِيقُ لِلنِّسَاءِ. »

— Hadith

English: « Tasbih be for men and clapping fit for women. »

— Hadith

So these scholars used this hadith as evidence for the prohibition or dislike for a woman to raise her voice so that men can hear her.[10]

It seems that the hadith banning loudness is concerned with prayer alone, because the state of prayer is the state of communion (munajat), so it is not necessary for a man to think of any of the meanings of desire, as Imam Al-Sarakhsi says.[11]

The fuqaha inferred that the rite of prayer needs to empty the heart (qalb) of its concerns, by performing the silent prayer [ar] in all cases, and this is why this prohibition on women praising them if they are mistaken or frightened by something in prayer, and that is despite the fact that praise (tasbih) does not exceed two words (Subhan Allah), this is at the time when the Islam authorized women to speak to men with good words, even if the conversation lasted.[12]

This means that men outside of prayer can hear a woman's voice without being embarrassed, but women are prevented from speaking out in tasbih during prayer because they are absolutely instructed to lower their voices in prayer.[13]

And this is what was previously mentioned if men are in the presence of the woman who is praying, except that many women recite in silence in the prayer aloud, and they avoid hearing themselves even in the absence of men, and this is contrary to the Sunnah because reciting out loud in the loud prayers is the fixed Sunnah of Muhammad.[14]

As for the silent and aloud recitation, it is likewise there is no difference between a man and a woman, because the night prayers are loudly and the daytime prayers are silently for both, except that as stated above, if a woman has someone who hears her voice from among the men, then she is pleased with the recitation (tilawa) and does not raise her voice for fear of being tempted by her, but if she is not in the presence of men, then it is okay for her to recite out loud in the night prayer.[15]

Imam

Xiaotaoyuan Women's Mosque in Shanghai, China.

Islam allowed women to pray as a female Imam with women and non-adult children, and allowed her to read aloud due to the absence of men from the congregational prayer (Salah al jama'ah) that she leads.[16][17]

This is because it is not correct for males to follow the female Imam, because males follow a man only as an Imam, and for women it is correct for them to follow a man as their imam in prayer.[18][19]

With regard to the Sharia ruling on a woman leading a male boy, the jurisprudential saying is that it is not permissible for a woman to be a man's imam, whether he is young or old.[20][21]
