Women and congregational prayers
It is better for women to pray in their houses than to attend congregational prayers. However, they may go to the mosque and
attend the congregational prayer if they avoid wearing or using any attractive or tempting adornment or perfume.
Ibn 'Umar reports that the Prophet sallallahu alehi wasallam said: "Do not prevent the women from going to the mosques,
although their houses are better for them." Abu Hurairah relates that the Prophet said: "Do not keep the slave girls of Allah
from the mosques of Allah. And they are to go out unperfumed." These two ahadith were related by Ahmad and Abu Dawud.
Abu Hurairah also reports that the Prophet said: "Any woman who uses some scent should not be present with us during the
night prayer." This is related by Muslim, Abu Dawud, and an-Nasa'i with a hasan chain.
As stated earlier, it is better for women to pray in their houses. Ahmad and at-Tabarani record that Umm Humaid as-Sa'diyah
came to the Messenger of Allah and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I love to pray with you." The Prophet said: "I am aware of
that, but your salah in your residence is better for you than your salah in your people's mosque. And your salah in your
people's mosque is better than your salah in the [larger] congregational Mosque."
Al-Muwatta Hadith
Hadith 14.15
Concerning Women Going Out to the Mosque
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Amra bint Abd ar-Rahman that A'isha, the wife of the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "If the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, had seen
what women do now, he would have forbidden them to go into the mosques, just as the women of the Bani Israil were
forbidden."
Yahya ibn Said said that he asked Amra, "Were the women of the Bani Israil forbidden to go into the mosques?" and she
said, "Yes."

Fiqh 2.58
It is preferred to have a woman imam for women
'Aishah used to lead the women in salah and stand with the women in the middle of the first row. Umm Salamah would also
do so. The Prophet sallallahu alehi wasallam appointed Waraqah to go and make the adhan for her while he instructed her to
lead the women of her household in the obligatory prayers.

The positioning of the young and the women
The Messenger of Allah placed the men in front of the young boys and the women behind the young boys. This is related by
Ahmad and Abu Dawud.
