[quote]As you have rightly pointed out that congregational prayers are highly recommended for men while women are [b]allowed[/b] to attend daily prayers in the mosque. Although the Prophet (sws) encouraged Muslim women to offer their obligatory prayers with the congregation, this directive was not as strong for them as it was for men. It would be nice if an arrangement is made for women to participate in prayers at their local mosques. Praying in the mosque is a beautiful feeling, at times incomparably more self-fulfilling than individual prayers. There might be areas where, or circumstances when going to the mosque would be unfeasible for women in which case they should pray at their homes. I feel that it really is a cultural thing at times given a religious tinge to keep women away from the supposedly elevated realm of men. In North America, for instance, the practice of women attending mosques is much more prevalent than in let's say South Asia where it is by and large nonexistent.[/quote]
