Prohibition of staying in Khulwah with the maternal uncle's wife
Q: I am a student in a Sunni school. I live with my maternal uncle. I transferred to this school last year.
My maternal uncle's wife does not wear the face veil at home.
It should be noted that I am now committed to religion, praise be to Allah.
I joined
the Group of Ansar Al-Sunnah during
Ramadan, and I know that I should not shake hands with non Mahram (spouse or permanently unmarriageable relative) relatives. The second point relates to eating at the same table, for my maternal uncle's wife is always in her house clothes and I cannot force her to eat alone. However, I myself can not leave them and eat alone. I appreciate your advice.
A:
If the reality is as mentioned, you are prohibited from staying in Khulwah (being alone with a member of the opposite sex) with your maternal uncle's wife, in a way that you and her stay alone in the house which may lead to temptation and evil.
