Taking a lift with Ladies
Q: Is it permissible for a na mahram man to take a lift with two ladies (He will be alone with them in the car)? The reason he is taking a lift is because his home is approximately 2 to 3 kilometres from the workplace and he has no other means of transport besides walking. Will it be permissible for them to give him a lift in this situation? Furthermore if the husband follows his wife in another car, will it be permissible for the na mahram male to take a lift with her?

Spirit of the Sunnah
Q: Mufti Saheb, I teach in a maktab with my husband for the last 23 years. I am asked to attened regular meatings with the other two Aapas sitting behind the purdah. In the class are all the male Ulema also. They cannot see us only hear what we have to say. Is it permissible for me to attened? I am happy for my husband to inform me as to what is said and what has to be done. One of the Aalim's does not have a problem with his wife attending. My husband says the jamaat members insist and force me to attend so I must attend and just sit quitly and not say a word. I should not look at the jamaat members but look at the children we teach. If we are forced to leave the jamaat members won't loose but the children will loose out. What should I do according to shariat?
