Is it permissible for a woman to nurse men?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible for women to treat men medically?The Shaykh : Yes, it is permissible for a woman to nurse men if there is no man available, and there is nothing wrong with it, because this is a pressing need. The same applies in the reverse case: if a man is the one who must treat a woman because no woman is available, there is nothing wrong with it. However, we must know that it is obligatory that there be no seclusion with a non-mahram, and that the woman not be displaying her adornment or causing fitnah (trial, discord or temptation).
