Reading the Zohar for Women

AA

Question

Is it permissible for women to read the Zohar, and who is allowed to read and study Kabbalah?

Answer

Greetings

It is permissible for women to attend lectures, as stated on the website, since this is Kabbalah in an abstract and practical form. However, reading the Zohar and studying the secrets is strongly discouraged for women.

This is because women are associated with the attribute of sovereignty; the study of the hidden is intended to rectify the matter of sovereignty. Since they are in this state, the rectification cannot be achieved through the rectified, and it only arouses judgments against them. Therefore, they should refrain from this.
