Until What Age Can a Girl Study in a Madrasa?

Question

Up to what age may girls be given religious education in elementary religious schools and Arabic madrasas?

Answer

For girls up to six or seven years old there is no real objection, provided also that they do not learn bad conduct; they should be kept under full supervision. Girls of eight or nine years should be prevented from attending a boys’ elementary religious school or madrasa.
