Male Giving Driving Lessons To A Female

[ummtaalib]

Q.)

I am a driving instructor in the UK. Does Islam permit me to give lessons to women?

 

A.)

It is

haram

for a male to give driving lessons to a Ghayr Mahram (not prohibited in marriage) female. Rasulullah

said, 'No (Ghayr Mahram) man should be alone with a woman.' And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
