Hadith on Mosques: Women having proper etiquette in the mosque

‘Amrah bint Abdur Rahman reported: Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said, “Were the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, to see what women are now doing, he would have prevented them from attending the mosque, just as the women of the children of Israel were prevented from attending.”
