Question:
He says: If a woman goes up in an elevator and there are three men in it, is that considered seclusion?
Answer:
No, as long as there are three men. But if it is just one man and a woman, that is seclusion. However, if there are more than one man, it is not seclusion, unless these men are of doubtful character. In that case, it is not permissible for her to go up with them. If they are open sinners and of doubtful character, she should not go up with them. Yes.
