Fatwa #1046120 December 2003Pakistan

My friend teaches Islamiat in a school for the purpose of TABLEEGH in full Parda ,so is it allowed to do job for this purpose however no financial problem?

Question

There is a need to tell the yought about Islam .so She has the profession of teaching & as she tells different matters about Islam to both students & colleagues ,its results are also positive.she wears full gown & hijab & in the presence of males covers her face too.so can she continue job for the pupose of Tableegh-e-Deen? Q2.Is it allowed for a woman to do job (to keep her self busy) without any financial problem like teaching of different subjects e.g.Maths ,English etc.

Answer

In principle, a female should remain within the confines of her home. Allah Ta?ala states, ?And remain in your homes??

If there is a need for her to emerge from her home, she may do so on condition she strictly adheres to the laws of Hijaab. To emerge from the house for a female for purpose of Tableeghis a Deeni need and permissible.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
