Working in a shop where the buyers include both men and women


Question :

What is the ruling on sale store which sells goods like furniture but both the men and women come to buy goods and most female visitors are not in hijaab? This is the condition in India.

Answer :

Shaykh said that there is nothing wrong with the business and that one should have Taqwa to the best of their ability . Shaykh said as long as the worker and the women are not alone in a room by them selves. If it is an open area and the workers and other customers are there then just lower your gaze and fear Allaah to your ability.
