Some say women must never leave the house. Others treat it like there are no guidelines at all. But what did the Prophet ﷺ actually say?

In this episode, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains the second hadith from the book الأربعون النسائية (The Forty Hadiths for Women) — a concise and powerful narration from ʿAishah رضي الله عنها:

"Permission has been granted for you to go out for your needs." (Agreed upon – al-Bukhari and Muslim)

What's the context of this statement? A moment involving Sawdah رضي الله عنها and ʿUmar رضي الله عنه sparked this guidance — and it opens up a meaningful discussion around what qualifies as a "need" (Haajah), and how modesty was practised at the time.

You'll also learn: - Who ʿAishah رضي الله عنها was — her early life, marriage to the Prophet ﷺ, and her deep scholarship - How the Prophet's ﷺ wives balanced public needs with modesty - The fiqh rulings derived from this narration - The deeper wisdom behind this hadith and what scholars have said about it

Grounded, clear, and relevant — this session provides practical guidance for Muslims navigating this topic today.
