Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a man marries a woman and takes her to the hospital or the market alone with her, is the waiting period obligatory for him, and does this count as seclusion?
Answer:
No, people do not see him; they see him walking among the people. They see that he has not secluded himself. One must close the door or lower the curtain. Although there is a difference of opinion among scholars regarding seclusion without intercourse, some scholars say that intercourse is required and that seclusion alone is not sufficient. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[Al-Ahzab 33:49] This is a matter in which there is disagreement from the outset. Yes.

before you have touched them
مِن قَبْلِ أَن تَمَسُّوهُنَّ
