Can a qualified Aalima work in White owned business if she prefers not to teach in a madressah?

Answer

A woman (irrespective of whether she is an Alima or not) should leave her home only when necessary.

An Alima should understand the importance of imparting Deeni knowledge. It does not behove an Alima to abandon the sacred task of imparting Deeni knowledge and opt for working for some kufaar.
