A man teaching a young girl in the presence of her family

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a man to teach a girl who is eight years old, provided her father or her brothers are present?

Answer:
By Allah, as long as she is below the age of puberty and still a child, and he teaches her in the presence of people and does not seclude himself with her, the matter is lighter. However, avoiding this is more cautious for him and purer for his conscience. You will find women who can teach her, and praise be to Allah, there are now many educated women, more than men, so there is no need for men to teach the girls; women of their own kind can teach them. Yes.
