Ulama taking oral and practical exams of baaligh girls

· 8 Jumada I 1444 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Is it permissible for Ulama to take Quran/Surahs oral exams and practical wudhu/ghusal/salat exams of baaligh girls in a maktab?

Answer

Precaution requires that males should not examine girls. This becomes even more important in this age when all places are flooded with fitnah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
