The results of the research in the section on obstacles to cycling from the perspective of Islamic jurisprudence include two categories: 1. Secondary rulings, which include two sub-categories (customary conditions of society and culture of society) and 2. Jurisprudence, which includes a sub-category (individual benefits). According to sports science experts, the results of the research were six concepts, which included (physical factors, security, organizational, software factors, rules and regulations, cultural-social). The results of this research indicate that women's cycling is not a problem in itself from the point of view of Islam and jurisprudence, and according to the works it follows, scholars have raised these questions for women's cycling with secondary titles.
