Question: Are Muslim women not allowed in the mosque?
Answer: "Muslim women are generally allowed to enter and pray in mosques, as there is no prohibition in the Quran against it, and Prophet Muhammad explicitly stated not to prevent them. While some cultural or regional interpretations may discourage it or limit access to designated areas, the religious consensus permits, and sometimes encourages, their attendance for prayer and community, despite it not being mandatory."

A lie or a made-up rule by men for whatever reason?
Question: Are Muslim woman not allowed in Mecca?
Answer: "Muslim women are allowed, and actively welcomed, in Mecca. Saudi Arabia allows women of all ages to perform Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages, and recent reforms now permit them to travel without a male guardian (mahram). Women constitute a significant portion of pilgrims, with 40% in recent years, and they are encouraged to participate in all religious activities.No Male Guardian Needed: Single Muslim women can obtain visas and travel for religious pilgrimages without a male relative."
