Is a female physician permitted to circumcise boys?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
Female physicians are permitted under Sharee'ah to circumcise boys who
have not reached the age when they are ordered to pray, which is seven
years old. The Maaliki scholar Ibn Abi Zayd Al-Qayrawaani said: "
Women are permitted to wash youngboys who are six or sevenyears old. "
Al-Ghumaari another Maaliki scholar, reported the consensus of the
scholars in this respect and quoted Ibn Al-Munthir as saying: " All
the scholars we know of unanimously agree that awoman is permitted to
wash a young boy. But they provided different views regarding the age.
Maalik was of the view that it is permissible to wash the boy under
seven, because he is not commanded to pray and looking at his 'Awrah
is not prohibited. Then he mentioned that the evidence is relevant to
a boy at the age of six, not seven, because we are commanded to order
the latter to pray at this age. "
Usually circumcision takes place during the first weeks after birth.
In all cases, seeing the 'Awrah of a boy who is under seven years old
is not prohibited. Allaah Knows best. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->
