Asalaamu Alaikoum wa ramatuh Allahi wa barakatuh sisters!
Here is a Question and Answer about women going to the Eid Prayer...
Also, just wanted to let you know that tomorrow night at Dar Al-Farooq, at 7:30 pm, there is going to be an Eid celebration and they are going to provide dinner :) You can dress up and put on make up if you want to! :)
InshaAllah you can make it!!
Also, I had a question... is it the law that American jobs are supposed to let Muslims have their holidays off WITH pay , or without pay, or either?
I thought that they were supposed to let us have the day off WITH pay, like it was a law, but maybe I'm wrong?? Does anyone know? Jazak Allahu Khair!
Ok, here is the following queston and fatwa:
Salaam,
Andrea :)

Question #26983: Eid prayer for women is Sunnah
Question : Is Eid prayer obligatory for women? If it is obligatory, should they pray at home or in the musalla (prayer place)?. Answer : Praise be to Allaah. Standing Committee for Academic Research and Issuing Fatwas, 8/284-286 (www.islam-qa.com) |
Salaam (Peace be upon you), Andrea (Saleema) "To God belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth. Whether you show what is in your own selves or conceal it, God will call you to account for it. Then He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills, for God is Able to do all things." (Qur'an 2:284).

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
