Q: What is the correct method for a women to choose a sheikh for Islaah. Does she have to have her husbands permission? Do both husband and wife have to have the same sheikh?
A: It is important that she should consult her husband in these matters. It is also important that she does her islaah via the husband. She should not relate to the shaikh directly.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
