[quote][blue]What I see here is there is a privelage for women that they can pray at home, but what if they want to come to mosque ? are they allowed or not?[/blue]

Yes they are allowed to come into the mosque according to Islam.  It's just prefered that they pray at home for many reasons which I stated earlier.  But for men it is prefered that they pray in the mosque.  So if women want to come to the mosque to pray they can but I see it as their getting more good deeds if they pray at home.

I dont think anyone is stopping them from coming to the other mosques.  What they want is to have full control inside of the mosque, so that they can discuss whatever they want inside.  That means a female owner, female imam, female teachers, etc.  They also said that if men want to come and pray thats fine.  I see a big problem with this though.  Men and women cannot pray side by side, and men cannot pray behind women.  Seeing as how there probably going to be a female imam, this is wrong.  If it were all females it wouldn't be wrong for one of them to be the imam but if there are men praying behind her I see this as sinful.  Women should be in a seperate room of the mosque or atleast be praying behind the men not infront or to the sides of them.
