Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. What is the ruling on going to parks designated for women, which may contain some violations?
Answer:
It is not permissible to go to gatherings of women, because of the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) involved, so he should not go there, except if he is one of the men of the hisbah (religious police) and it is reported to them that there are munkar (what is wrong) acts, in which case they go to remove the munkar (what is wrong) therein. As for a person who goes to watch and walk around, this is not permissible.
