Advice for women who go out with a driver who is not a mahram (a relative one may not marry) for them?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. He seeks your advice regarding the women who go out with car drivers, who are not mahrams for them, but are only relatives.
Answer:
It is not permissible for a woman to go out with a driver who is not one of her mahrams, even if he is one of her relatives. If he is not one of her mahrams, she does not ride with him. This is based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Khalwah (seclusion) includes seclusion in a car, in a house, in the desert, or in any place, such that no one is present with them whose presence would remove the seclusion. So these people should fear Allah regarding their women and not leave them to ride with the drivers alone; because of the great fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) and the great evil in that. Even if he is a relative to her, her cousin, or her maternal cousin, or her sister's husband; he is a stranger to her. Yes.
