Is it permissible for a woman to sit with her cousins and her maternal uncle’s sons?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This is a woman asking: Is it permissible for me to sit with my paternal cousins and my maternal uncle’s sons, provided I am in complete hijab, or should I not sit with them at all without being in seclusion with them?

The Shaykh:
It is permissible for a woman to sit with men, even if they are not her mahram (relatives one may not marry), on the condition that she is in a separate area and does not mix with them, and that she is wearing the complete hijab. Yes.

The questioner:
From that, are you safe from fitnah (trial, discord or temptation)?

The Shaykh:
He knows it and keeps it safe. Yes.
