The questioner : Is it permissible for me, O honorable Shaykh, to ride in my sister’s husband’s car and have him take me home when I visit my sister, with my husband’s knowledge, and my sister’s husband asks me questions and talks to me? Is it permissible for me to ride with him?
The Shaykh : If one of you is with them, such as the brother’s wife or any other person, and this brother is trustworthy, then there is no harm. But if he is alone with her, then this is seclusion. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade a man from being alone with a woman unless she is accompanied by a mahram.
The questioner : May Allah reward you, may Allah thank you, O honorable Shaykh, and may Allah reward you and your knowledge and benefit the Muslims through you.
