The ruling on a man greeting women with the salam

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a man to greet women with the salam, even if there is a prohibition involved?

Answer:
If there is a danger involved, no. But if there is no danger, there is nothing wrong with it. Greet the men, the women, the young, and the old, as long as there is no fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) or flirtation; otherwise, it is not permissible.
