Separating adult children in beds and rooms
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: If the sons and daughters reach the age of puberty, is it sufficient to separate them only in their beds? Or is it necessary to provide a room for the girls and a room for the boys? Or is that excessive strictness?
Answer:
No, it is not excessive strictness. This is better; if it is feasible, it is better and more effective in separating them. If it is not feasible, there is no objection to them being in one room, but each person has his or her own bed, far from the other, and the father or mother supervises them until they are left alone. Yes.
