There are few women serving in  PAF and I wanted to know that is it acceptable according to Shariah?  Some people raise question that it is not good since an unmarried women  should not work in an area which is dominated by men and she should  focus in other fields like nursing, hospitals and teaching only where  they are actually required. Even I agree that for girl students the  teacher should be a women but what if a women is interested to work in  PAF? People even raise question that women in PAF don\u2019t completely  follow shariah (meaning that most of them don\u2019t cover their heads and  don\u2019t wear Islamic code of dressing although I don\u2019t see any sensitive  part of their body really showing when they wear PAF uniform. Please  throw some light on this.<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>I  do not understand why working in an institution necessarily means  violating the shari&#8217;ah. If the women working in this particular  institute do not follow the shari&#8217;ah then we should say that they should  follow the shari&#8217;ah but we cannot say that they should not join the  organization unless the organization prohibits them following the  religious obligations.<\/p>\n<div>If  a woman living in perfect Islamic environment does not follow the basic  requirements of the Shari&#8217;ah that does not mean that the environment is  responsible. We can only talk of improving the religiosity, religious  consciousness and God-consciousness of women working in all types of  institution. We can also encourage women to join organizations which  provide them more religion friendly environment but we cannot say that  it is <em>haram<\/em> to join an organization where the workers are not  mindful of their religious obligations. It is possible that women of  sound religious and moral knowledge improve the environment by their  conduct. We must also consider the fact that unless we are able to  provide the women with more suitable profession and guarantee their  financial well being we should not stop them from joining other  organizations which may not have to offer perfect environment. <\/div>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-03-05<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"5870\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a question regarding  women pilots in PAF (Pakistan Air Force).
