Question:
Assalamualaikum Syedi,
Without a doubt shahwa between two non mahram is disgusting.
I am asking because I live in a western society and I would love a clear understanding.
The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said, “No one of you should meet a woman in privacy unless she is accompanied by a Mahram .”
[Al-Bukhari ].
1. Is speaking to a women in privacy in an open space for necessities like fixing family problems or deen or work against this.
2. If there is one man and two women in a room, does that violate the law of having a mahram around.
2. Syedi, are their narrations of our Nabi (saw) speaking to women on the streets when he saw something wrong and he wanted to help?
It’s all being asked to understand wisdom,to promote ease of Islam and at the same time forbid batil.
Shukran,
FiAmanAllah
