Females attending ladies programs
Question
An Aalim is having a few programs in our town including a ladies program. Is there more reward for the ladies to attend the program in person, or to listen via a live-streaming link?
Answer
If the Bayaan is streamed live, then the females should listen over the live-streaming link. It is better for females not to leave their homes. They haven’t been permitted to leave their homes for the congregational Salaah, Jumuah Salaah, Eid Salaah, etc. hence in this instance too, they should remain at home and listen to the broadcast.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
