What is the ruling on a woman visiting a non-mahram sick man with her mahram?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A woman, O Shaykh, visited a sick man who is a non-mahram to her, accompanied by her mahram. Is this permissible?
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : A woman visited a sick man who is a non-mahram to her, but she was with her mahram.
The Shaykh : What do you want, when he is a non-mahram to her?
The questioner : There is a relationship between them!
The Shaykh : A relationship between her and him?
The questioner : No.
The Shaykh : Then why does she visit?
I see that this is a mistake on her part, visiting a non-mahram man with whom she has no kinship tie. There is no doubt that this is a mistake on her part. However, yes, if this non-mahram man is one of her relatives, for example, an elderly male cousin who is sick, and there is a connection between them and they visit each other, and she went to visit him with her mahram, then it might be said: there is nothing wrong with it. Or if he is her neighbor, he is elderly, and it is prescribed for her to visit him, and she went to him with her mahram to visit him, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes, after him on the left.
