Can Women Pray in Public Places?

Women Pray in Public Places

Question:

What is the ruling of a woman offering prayer (salah) in public places?

Answer:

In the name of Allah, we praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.

In our blessed tradition we have been told by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that this entire Earth has been made a blessed place and a Masjid/Mosque for him. Both men and women can pray in public spaces.

Although, it is important that Muslim women check if they can concentrate, if they are safe and they need to make sure that their modesty is not exposed.
