my Madanī Markaz allows, اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, I will soon start a Sunnaĥ-inspiring Ijtimā’ in my own house.

‘Ālim na muttaqī ĥūn na zāĥid na pārsā

Ĥūn ummatī tumĥārā gunāĥgār Yā Rasūlallāĥ

I am not a scholar, or pious, or an ascetic, or righteous

I am your sinful follower O Prophet of Allah

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب           صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Our Prophet صَلَّی اللّٰہ تعالٰی علیہ واٰلہٖ وسلَّم is aware of his followers’ predicaments

سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! Even today, our Ghayb-knowing Rasūl, the Embodiment of Nūr صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, is aware of his followers’ lives and consoles them in their dreams. A saint said: Once due to falling in my bathroom I injured my hand, it was swollen and very painful. Meanwhile, I went to sleep and had a dream in which I was blessed with the blessed vision of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. His sacred lips began to move and flowers of mercy blossomed from them; these were the sweet words he uttered, ‘Son! Your Durūd caught my attention.’ When I awoke in the morning, due to Beloved Mustafa’s blessings there was no pain or swelling. (Sa’ādat-ud-Dārayn, pp. 140)

Exiting without permission to attend a religious Ijtimā’

Question: What should a woman do if her parents or husband prohibits her from attending a gathering of religious knowledge (such as Sunnaĥ-inspiring Ijtimā’)?

Answer: She should obey them. However, if she cannot acquire essential knowledge such as essential information about purity, Ṣalāĥ, fasting etc. without exiting her home then she is allowed to exit even without their permission.
