Na-Mehramon say mel jol ka wabaal

Book Name:Na-Mehramon say mel jol ka wabaal

Committing the sin! Therefore, one must be very cautious of such seclusion. It is necessary to avoid even the causes of evil. If you want to prevent fever, prevent the cold. (Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 5, pp. 21; slightly amended)

‘Allamah ‘Abdur Ra`oof Manaawi رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه made the following comment about this blessed Hadees: Whenever a woman is alone with a non-Mahram man, this is a favourable opportunity for Satan. He makes both of them have indecent thoughts in their hearts, arouses their sexual emotions, and encourages both of them to be shameless and indulge in sin.

(Fayd-ul-Qadeer Sharh Al-Jami’-us-Sagheer, vol. 3, pp. 102, Taht-al-Hadees 2795)

 

Dear Islamic brothers! Islamic veil must be observed between male and female cousins. If male and female cousins stay with each other in seclusion, behave informally towards each other, joke with each other, etc. it can really have terrible consequences.

Remember! A man must observe Islamic veil with his wife’s sister, brother’s wife, wife of paternal uncle and that of maternal uncle. It is not permissible to be in seclusion with them or behave informally towards them. People who commit these sins should tremble with fear in case they face the Divine punishment. These acts may displease Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, causing destruction in the worldly life as well as in the afterlife. Moreover, if a woman considers any non-Mahram man to be her father, brother or son; he cannot become her actual father, brother or son merely for this reason. Even Nikah with them is valid.

In our society, it is commonly seen that a man considers any non-Mahram woman as his ‘mother’, a girl considers any non-Mahram man as her ‘brother’, a woman considers any non-Mahram as her ‘son’, a girl considers any non-Mahram as her ‘paternal uncle’ or even ‘father’. In the name of these so-called relationships, these types of people violate Islamic laws of veil, indulging in severe sins.

May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ protect us from these evils! Those who form these types of so-called relationships with non-Mahrams should fear Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Indeed, Satan does not warn before attacking. It is stated in a blessed Hadees: ‘Avoid the world and women because the very first Fitnah [i.e. evil] that arose among the Bani Israel was that of women.’ (Sahih Muslim, pp. 1465, Hadees 2742)
