Shaykh Bin Baaz on Sisters Exercising

Bismillah assalamualikum

I can tell you from my own experience, being overweight is a BIG PROBLEM FOR WORSHIP OF ALLAH; it is very hard to wake up early, it is very hard to move around, one feels tired often and easily, it makes one feel lazy, really! Get yourself to workout, please! Remember the hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhe wa sallam worst thing we can fill is to fill our belly! 

Being overweight leads to other problem like your ankles start to HURT and knees because people! Your knees and ankles are created to carry certain amount of weight! So, when you cross the limit, you pay the price by being on pain! 

Take care of yourself, watch out what you eat! may Allah help us. Ameen. 



Shaykh Bin Baaz on Sisters Exercising

Question: The questioner asks about the ruling on young ladies exercising?
Answer: Exercise varies; it is a general word. Exercising amongst the girls with something that does not oppose the pure legislation; by way of an abundance of walking in a place specific to them in which men will not mix with them or men will not see them, or by way of swimming amongst them within their home or in their school specifically wherein the men will not see them and men will not come in contact with them, there is no harm in this. As for the exercise which contains mixing between men and women or wherein men will see them or it will bring about evil for the Muslims, then it is not permissible. It is a must that the details be provided. The exercise which is specific to the women and does not contain anything legislatively prohibited and does not contain mixing with men, and it within a secluded place and a place far removed from free-mixing, then there is no harm in it; whether that be by walking, swimming, and its like; similarly, racing between them.
