Partner and I have been invited to attend tomorrow .Is it more common these days for women to attend ?
Is there anything I should be aware of ,I don't want to offend anyone .

I'm really unhelpfully not Muslim but expect to be with the other women rather than with your DH, and I'm assuming you'll need a head covering.

Yes women can attend. Out of respect, cover arms, leg and head. Men and women might be segregated.

Thank you ,that's really helpful .I'd not thought about covering my head .Had considered that men and women wouldn't stand together .

Such a lovely experience yesterday .Very calm and peaceful ,surrounded by lovely people who couldn't have been more kind and welcoming .
I needn't have had any concerns about intruding .
