Q: Can you please advise if a female is allowed to give quraan imtihaan to a Moulana from behind a veil. Generally we have Moulana's taking imtihaan in our maktab madrasahs and to accommodate the girl students who have reached the age of puberty we provide a place where they can sit and be tested on their Quraan from behind a curtain. However the Moulana's cannot see the girls at all but only listen to them reading the Quraan. Is this permissible?
Q: Islamic radio stations sometimes have programmes with women speaking. Is it permissible for a man to listen to this?
Q: Is a woman's voice part of her ourah? I learned that the wakeel of a woman must first give way to her before she can be allowed to speak to a man other than a direct male relative of her family. I ask because I hear woman speak freely on the Islamic radio stations and it doesn't sound right.
Q: Please can mufti saheb explain the aspect of a women's voice being part of the pardha? Someone has presented arguments that in time of Sahaba this was not found and they used to talk to Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and that one of Imam shafi RA teachers was a woman.
