When must a woman veil herself from a boy?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : As for a woman veiling herself from a boy, Allah has divided children into two categories:
One category is the boy who has reached the age of discernment regarding women's private parts, and it is obligatory to veil oneself from him.
The other category is the boy who has not reached the age of discernment regarding women's private parts, and it is not obligatory to veil oneself from him.
The one who has reached the age of discernment is the one who looks at women, repeats his gaze at them, and speaks about matters concerning women. It is obligatory to veil oneself from him, even if he is ten years old.
As for the inattentive child who knows nothing about these matters, it is not obligatory to veil oneself from him.
