Question

Is it advisable for a woman to do hifz?

Answer

For women who can assume full responsibility in taking care of the Qur’aan for the rest of their lives, looking after their husbands with cheer and taking care of the husband’s house duties, for such a woman she may do hifz.

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