A woman going to the doctor with another woman
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: I am a young woman, thirty-three years old. What is the ruling on my going to the doctor with my mother or one of my sisters, even though I do not go, even if I am compelled, except with a mahram?
Answer:
If there is someone else with you, a woman or an adult man, the seclusion is lifted, so there is no harm in going to the doctor. Rather, if she goes alone and enters the doctor’s presence alone in an empty place, that is forbidden and not permissible. If there are people in the place and she needs the doctor, or if there is no female doctor available and she needs one, there is no harm. Yes.
