Ye it is clear from the beginning of the video that it is women at the back and the men at the front. And what do you mean by "not full truth" i don't understand what that meant... Are you saying that it is not true that women sat at the back and men at the front in the time of Muhammad (pbuh) or in the video it is not true that women are at the back and men at the front.

Salam.

A few things:

It is not clear cut how the women are sitting. If the women were supposedly seated in the back, it should be obvious, but it isn't since there are women who are right up there at the front (see the left side) and some men are at the back. We shouldn't be compromising the shari'ah for the sake of learning. Also, we should not lay blame at the shaykh since he is not the management and he may have alerted the masjid management of the situation who may not have heeded but ultimately the blame lies upon the management of the masjid.

Furthermore, Umar

separated men and women because of the fear of fitnah. We are talking about the time of the sahaba

, the best of generations, and Umar

separated the men and women with a physical partition. In fact, he initially banned women from the masjid. 'Aisha

also shared the same opinion.
