What is the ruling on coeducational schools?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is there a specific age for children to be in coeducational schools?
Answer:
Females do not mix with males; this is not permissible. If they are mixed at an early age, this is a gradual introduction to mixing for them, an acclimatization to mixing, and it is a deception. This is a deception by the enemies of Islam. They know that Muslims do not accept mixing, so they said, let them be in the first stage, with the children, meaning it starts first and then develops afterward. This is a cunning trick, and I seek refuge in Allah.
