The ruling on a woman going out with a driver without a mahram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Aml Muhammad from the State of Kuwait, says: I ask the honorable Shaykh Abdulaziz to answer my question. The questioner is a university student, and the distance between the university and their home is about half an hour, or a little less. She always goes with her mother and the driver, but sometimes it is difficult for her mother to go with her due to circumstances. The questioner asks: Is it permissible for me to go alone with the driver, knowing that the road is crowded with people in the morning? Is that permissible or not? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
It is not permissible; because this is seclusion with a non-mahram and a danger. It is not permissible based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 2:94 It is not permissible for you to go with the driver, neither to school nor anywhere else, alone. There must be a third or fourth person with you, so that you are not accused. As for being alone, it is not permissible. Yes.

A man should not be alone with a woman, for Satan is the third among them.
