Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I work in the medical field in one of the hospitals, and as you know, there is free mixing of men and women and seclusion. My question is: Am I a sinner if seclusion occurs between me and one of the female employees? Knowing that my work sometimes requires this, what should I do?
Answer:
What exempts you from this? It is forbidden for you. This is forbidden for you. Stay away from this job that involves free mixing. Seek another job. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has made sustenance ample.[At-Talaq 65:2-3] There are many fields of sustenance and many fields of work. So, seek a job that has no free mixing and no seclusion. Yes.

And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out (3) And will provide for him from where he does not expect.
وَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مَخْرَجًا وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُ
