However, though this custom of worshiping is under debate, we see many unmarried girls visiting the temple often and offering their prayers to Lord Hanuman. Likewise, another important factor to discuss is the fact that if women are allowed to chant the 'Hanuman Chalisa'; which is said to be very powerful and effective.
