The ruling on a man spending the night at his sister's house

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for me to spend the night at one of my sisters' houses?

Answer:
Yes, because she is a mahram (a relative one may not marry), provided she is in her own house. However, you must not be in the same bed; each of you should be in a separate bed. You in one bed, and she in another. What is prohibited is for you both to be in the same bed, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
It was commanded that they be separated in their sleeping placesأمر أن يفرق بينهم في المضاجع
If a boy reaches the age of ten, or a girl reaches the age of ten, then if you sleep alone and she sleeps alone, there is no blame on you.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
