A 14-year-old girl works as a domestic servant and some of her hair is sometimes visible during work. Is this permissible?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : There is a girl who is fourteen years old working as a domestic servant for some of the brothers, or in a similar capacity. He says: Given her work in the house and her effort, some of her hair and some of her clothing, or similar things, become visible. Is this permissible or not?

The Shaykh : It is not permissible.

The questioner : It is not permissible? During work, she is unable to [prevent it].

The Shaykh : Rather, it is not permissible for her to work there.

The questioner : Even with the presence of his two wives; he is married to two women.

The Shaykh : She is supposed not to do work in which she is exposed to having something of her body appear that is not lawful for her to show. This is the meaning of the statement that
The lawful is clear, and the unlawful is clear, and between them are doubtful matters. So whoever avoids the doubtful matters has safeguarded his religion and his honor. الحلال بين وان الحرام بين وبينهما أمور مشتبهات ، فمن اتقى الشبهات فقد استبرأ لدينه وعرضه
Therefore, she must stay away from this work that exposes her to such a sin. As for saying that it is permissible for her to do so, that is the furthest thing from the truth.
