man leading woman in prayer?

[du'a]

can a man lead a non mahram woman in prayer if there are 2 men and 1 woman praying? if so where/whats the daleer?

i know if its just 1 man/woman this is impermissible, but what if there are 2 men and a woman?

jazakallah khair

I wonder what that woman is doing with those two men, when both aren't her mahrams....
But I don't have knowledge enough to answer the question.

Assalaam walaikum,

It could be the workplace.

She should still be praying separately as the men are non-mahram. Unless, they have proper facilities like a mosque/prayer hall where this is a special secluded area for the sisters.

Fatwa : http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/46524/

Women are not obligated to pray in congregation by the way. It is better if they pray it on their own, rather than join jamaat of non-mahram men, where they don't have a place of their own (secluded area) to worship in peace.

And Allah knows best.

thanks for the clarification. i was pretty sure it wasnt permissible. i know prayer in congregation isnt fard for women, and just wanted clarification on this issue.

jazakallah khair for the responses
