My family recently came to qatar. we have the habit of attending friday prayer in mosque. In qatar i never found a mosque for ladies prayer. i went to some mosque's ladies prayer section, But they all filled with males on fridays. finally i went to the big mosque near vegetable & fish market.On that day my wife the is only women in a big ladies prayer hall... any one help me find a ladies prayer mosque with 10 + ladies are coming to prayer in Fridays. we are residing in Salwa road.
Salaam,
Generally, the larger the masjid, the more space for women.
My husband and I go to Masjid Omar ibn Al-Khattab, Masjid Abu Bakr, Fanar, Aspire masjid, etc. Most are conducted in Arabic (except for Fanar and Aspire).
The neighborhood masjids are generally too small to accommodate women, it seems.
It is quite better for women to pray at home.
Below is the reason:
However, the first and foremost reason is because there are rigorously authenticated traditions that specify that women should pray at home.
For example, the Prophet, Allah bless him and give him peace said, "A woman's prayer in the depths of her house is better than her prayer in this masjid of mine."
Aisha, may Allah be well pleased with her, said, "Had the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) seen what women do now, he would have forbidden them the mosque as the women of Bani Isra'il were forbidden."
Women receive the same blessing for praying at home that men receive for going to the mosque.
Traditionally, Muslim women were encouraged to stay at home in order to create a peaceful, loving environment for their families. There is also the need to protect women from being exposed to negative influences and harassment outside the home.
Islam, being a practical religion, also understands that it would be difficult for women if they were required to go to the mosque. When a woman is busy running a home and taking care of her children, going to the mosque five times a day would become an undue hardship.
This is not to say that women may not visit the mosque. The Prophet, Allah bless him and give him peace, said, " Do not prevent the female slaves of Allah from coming to the mosques of Allah. When a wife of one of you asks for permission to go to the mosque, she should not be refused this permission." [Bukhari and Muslim]
There are lot of mosques available at Qatar with separate section for women.
If you prefer a mosque near salwa road, i can suggest, a big mosque at Mamoura (near Egyptian school) with ample place for women for praying.
Fanar,its in front of soque Waqif
What's wrong with male praying Muslims around a lady? They are praying, aren't they?
Their are also Mosque for ladies near Toyota Signal near the Airport, also at Muntazah - Al Meera near Applolo Clinic and one on Corniche opposite of New Airport Arrival which I have listed the few one.
