A guest entering his brother's house when only his wife is present

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a guest from outside the city stays with his brother, and when he arrives he does not find the owner of the house, but only finds his wife, is it permissible for him to enter the house, or should he wait until the owner arrives?

Answer:
If she is the only one in the house, he does not enter, because this is seclusion with a non-mahram. However, if there are children in the house, even if they are young, there is nothing wrong with it.
