What is the ruling on a boy over seven years old entering upon women?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A boy of discernment who is over seven, if he knows the matters concerning women, is prevented from entering?

Answer:
This depends on the public interest and is left to the authority. The Qur'an says:
And when the children among you reach puberty, let them ask permissionوَإِذَا بَلَغَ الْأَطْفَالُ مِنْكُمُ الْحُلُمَ فَلْيَسْتَأْذِنُوا
[Surat al-Nur: 59]. Once a boy reaches puberty, as for before that, he is prevented in the three situations that Allah specified in Surat al-Nur.
