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 (Allah) Almighty is considered completely equal to the prayer that her brother in humanity and Islam, the man, performs.[2]

As for the feminine specificity of a Muslim woman when she performs prayer, Muslim jurists (fuqaha) have spoken about it in the chapters on women's matters and what is related to them from all sides, and they collected what is in the Book of God (Quran) and the Sunnah of God’s Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, as well as the sayings of scholars and jurists, from hadiths and comments regarding them.[3]

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 period and not to fast, and she is neither counted nor punished for her lack of prayer.[4]
