The Ruling on a Non-Muslim Passing Through the Boundaries of the Sacred Precinct

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you, peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. My question, my dear brother, is that I am a resident of the city of Jeddah. I have a Christian maid, and I want to travel to the city of Al-Baha. What is the ruling if I travel and enter from the boundaries of the Sacred Precinct, with the Christian maid with me in the car only? Okay, you are a resident of Jeddah and you want to perform 'Umrah? No, no, I am heading to the city of Al-Baha. Yes. Okay. So I am forced to pass through the boundaries of the Sacred Precinct, and the maid is with me, and she is Christian. Yes, or a resident of Jeddah who has a non-Muslim maid, and they want, Honorable Shaykh, to go from the boundaries of the Sacred Precinct. He says: Honorable Shaykh?

Answer:
That is, do not enter the boundaries of the Sacred Precinct; be outside the boundaries of the Sacred Precinct, yes.
