Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: It was mentioned to us that among the traps of Shaytan is that he catches men through women. He asks: How can a person be saved from this fitnah (trial, discord or temptation)?
Answer:
He should keep his distance from women, keep his distance from women’s markets, keep his distance from women’s gatherings, and keep his distance from parties that involve ikhtilat (free mixing of men and women). If women come forward to the stage to deliver a sermon or a speech, avoid these matters; keep your distance from them. Yes.
