== Learning Chassidus == The Rebbe's response regarding women and girls learning Chassidus: Since this is learning that explains how to serve Hashem and brings to love and fear of Him, anyone obligated in serving Hashem relates to this study. The Frierdiker Rebbe began spreading his sichos in Yiddish so that women and girls would also learn the Oral Torah in general and Chassidus in particular. He encouraged women to spread his sichos and teach them to their friends and acquaintances. Learning Chassidus is part of women's obligation because mitzvos like faith in Hashem, His unity, love and fear of Him etc. are constant mitzvos that every Jewish man and woman must fulfill and therefore learn. For this reason and others, the Rebbe rules that women are obligated to learn Chassidus. The Rebbe encouraged this and even highlighted certain advantages women have over men in learning Chassidus.
