in lots of Islamic country women are allowed to enter mosques , but not along with men , because the main goal of going to mosques is worship and it needs a pure desire to consent rate in ALLAH , as the host of the house of praying , however due to the nature of desires between strange men and women , sometimes it could bring some other thing between them , then it would take from them the interest towards the pray, to do so they have brought separate areas for women and men in the mosques, like putting a curtain between them and it is usually occurs in my country .
