Working in the construction of a summer resort visited by women in immodest attire
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings. I am an engineer working for a company that builds seaside houses as summer resorts. However, when the construction is finished, women come who are naked, wearing clothing that does not cover their state.
The Shaykh:
I repeat, I repeat, I repeat.
The questioner:
He says: Peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy. I am an engineer working for a company that builds seaside houses as summer resorts for people. But after the construction is finished, women come to this beach in a state of undress. Is there a sin on me for that?
The Shaykh:
Yes, do not look at them, do not mix with them, and report the matter to the responsible authority, the Emirate, Prince Majid if you are in Jeddah, or the Commission for Promoting Virtue and Preventing Vice if you see any of this. A Muslim has no brother except in cooperation on righteousness and piety. So if you see any of these wrongs, report the matter; do not remain silent. Write to Prince Majid or his deputy, Prince Saud ibn Abdulmusalim, or the Commission, and inform them, so that the police may be a support for them in good. Do not be afraid. Do not look at them; lower your gaze, fear Allah, and report your matter if you are sincere.
