In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that women are not forbidden from going to mosques. In the Prophet’s (PBUH) time, women attended Eid and Jumu'ah prayers for learning through the Khutbah. Today, with many ways to access knowledge, attending these prayers is less necessary. Though Caliph Umar (RA) restricted it later, it is still allowed and not sinful, but the need for it has reduced over time.
