Leaving the Home

Q:

1. Is it permissible for women to attend Islamic talks at the local Masjid at night with their Mahrams where there are separate entrances and segregation, but at the time of departure, due to the large numbers there would be an inevitable intermingling of the sexes in the Masjid car park?

2. What would the ruling be in the same situation, but where the lady comes to the Masjid at night without her Mahram and not in niqaab?

3. If the speaker, who is an Alim, knows or should have reasonable cause to believe that women will be travelling to the Masjid on their own at night, without niqab, should he still give a talk or refuse to do so?

4. Would the scholar be complicit in sin if he were to give a talk in such a situation knowing or having reasonable cause to believe that ladies were attending a night talk without their Mahrams and not observing the rules of Hijab?

Q: A charity is organising a sisters' only fundraiser where they will participate in paint balling and raise funds for Gaza. If this is incorrect, which I assume it is, please list the reasons for impermissibility so that I can advise the females of my family?

Q: I need advice. My father in-law has arranged for my wife and his other 2 daughters to go for there drivers licence, Masha Allah. Should he have asked for my permission to proceed with this arrangement, or he has the right to do this without my consent, and further more he arranged that my wife must come to his home in order to go for her lessons, and the mum will fetch her from my place and bring her back. I'm I wrong in questioning my wife, as to why she can't be picked up from my place instead, as I would like to know with who she's going.
