Q2:
Can I have friendship with my class fellow. She is a female? |
|
A: Friendship with the opposite sex usually leads to committing sins so we advice
you to stay away from it unless there is a religious contract between the
two of you. |
|
Q3:
Is it permissible for me to shake hands with the opposite gender? Is it permissible for me to shake hands with them because I am doing business with them? |
|
A: Handshaking that involve skin contact with a person of opposite sex is prohibited. A separation mean to prevent skin contact like gloves can be used.
It is best to apologize for not doing such action by stating that the religion
does not allow it.
Some people who does not understand the religion or does not believe in it
might imagine that this law is a disdain to women but this originates
from being away from the environments of Muslims and the details of their
religion since the prohibition of hand shaking is not limited to men but
it includes women as well as they are not permitted to shake hands of a man
in the said way which means that this law is not a humiliation or
contempt. It is purely a legislation that means – based on our
understanding – to put borders between man and woman to protect their
chasteness and to help in preventing them from falling in prohibitions.
