The ruling on female teachers riding with a non-mahram driver to school

Question:
He also asks and says: What is the ruling in the Shari'ah regarding women who go with a non-mahram driver? Knowing that the school is ten kilometers away from the location of these teachers, and there is no mahram with them, and also they maintain the hijab and are modest? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
There is no harm in that; because this is not travel. What is forbidden is travel , but as for his transporting them from their homes to the school, or to the market; this does not require a mahram. However, he must not be alone with one of them; there must be a group with him. And if two remain, they both get off together, and so on. When boarding, they all board together, so that he is not alone with one; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade seclusion and said: And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , so the non-mahram driver should have his mother or his wife with him, there is no harm, so that he is not alone with anyone. If he does not have a wife, or a mother, or anyone with him; then it is necessary that there be two or more with him, far from fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) and from suspicion, so that seclusion does not occur.
And there is no objection to transporting them to the school, or to visiting the homes of their friends .. or the like. The point is that transportation within the town and the outskirts of the town is permissible, it is not travel, but it is necessary that there be no seclusion in it. Yes.
Meaning, if it is for one woman, it is necessary that there be a third person with her. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
