The Ruling on a Veiled Woman Sitting With Men

Question :

One of my friends says that she is forced to sit with some men from her family without a Mahram and she is veiled with a complete Hijab. They greet her and her sons with salutations of peace when her husband is absent and he knows this, however she is not happy with this situation, but circumstances compel her.

Answer:

We advise this woman not to sit with these unrelated men, even if they are from her family, and even if she has covered her face or anything else. Although it might be allowed if it was simply offering salutations of peace from behind a wall or a screen, or among women. And the agreement of the husband is not considered a permission for this sitting and fraternization. However the matter is less serious than seclusion or sitting while displaying (her charms), but being far away is more fitting, and it is better for a woman not to see men, and for them not to see her. And Allah is the One Who from Whom help is sought.
