Answer :
Praise be to Allaah.
The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “No man is ever alone with a woman
(khulwah) but the Shaytaan is the third one with them.” (Reported by Ahmad and by al-Tirmidhi in his Sunan,
2091; Saheeh al-Jaami’, 2546). Allaah says in the story of Yoosuf, peace be upon him (interpretation of the
meaning): “And she, in whose house he was, sought to seduce him (to do an evil act), she closed the doors and
said, ‘Come on, O you’…” [Yoosuf 12:23]
It is not permitted for a man to be alone with a woman to whom he is not related, whether this is in a house,
office, clinic, elevator, car or any other place, because this may be the cause of him doing something haraam.
Shaytaan is keen to tempt people and make them fall into haraam deeds. The fuqaha’ are agreed that khulwah or
being alone with a woman to whom one is not related is forbidden. They said: “No man should be alone with a
woman who is not his mahram (a close relative to whom marriage is forbidden) or his wife, but is a stranger to
him, because the Shaytaan will whisper to them and tempt them to do something that is not permitted.
(Al-Mawsoo’ah al-Fiqhiyyah, 19/267) It is not permitted for a man to be alone with a non-mahram woman even if
he is teaching her Qur’aan, or to lead her in prayer if only the two of them are present. The guideline regarding
khulwah is that this prohibition applies in any situation where their figures are hidden from other people (Fath
al-Baari, 9/333). A taxi driver is bound to pass through empty streets or highways, and the structure of the car
conceals most of the body of a person riding in it. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that a forbidden
conversation will not take place, or that there will not be an agreement to do something forbidden. How many
tragedies and painful stories and disasters have occurred because of a driver being alone with a female
passenger! The wise sharee’ah of Islam has taken all precautions to avoid anything that may lead to
wrongdoing. It is essential to completely avoid any situation where a man and woman who are not related may be
alone together. A taxi driver should not accept a female passenger who is alone, except in cases of emergency
such as accidents and the like. And Allaah is the Source of strength. |

SALAAMU ALAYKUM
BROTHER A_CABAAS, IT WAS VERY INTERESTING TO READ YOUR PAGE, BUT AREN'T THERE EXCEPTIONS IN THE MUSLIM RELIGION. YOU SAID IT IS HARAM FOR A MALE TAXI DRIVER TO ACCEPT A FEMALE PASSENGER. NOW THAT USING COMMON SENCE THERE AREN'T THAT MANY FEMALE TAXI DRIVERS, THEREFORE; WHO DO YOU THINK SHOULD TAKE A FEMALE PASSENGER IF SHE NEEDS TO GET SOMEWHERE, URGENT OR NON URGENT.
I AM A MUSLIM BORN FEMALE, THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS I DON'T AGREE WITH IN THE MUSLIM RELIGION, BUT I KNOW I SHOULDN'T CHASE THE RELIGION. BUT HOW DO WE DEAL WITH SUCH THINGS AS THE ONE YOU JUST WROTE ABOUT. |

Asha Ahmed walaal waxa aad ka diday ma aha DIINTA ISLAAMKA Haddii Ilaahay Idmo ee waa dhaqanka MUSLIMIINTA.
It is not "MUSLIM RELIGION" sister the Religion is "ISLAM" we, the believer Allah's Willing, are "MUSLIM."
Waxa aan qasano oo qooshano macnaheedu ma aha in ay ka yimaadeen DIINTA ILAAHAY ee wax ka yimid nafteen oo Shaydaan u sheekeeyay.
Ilaahayow Noo Naxariiso |

thank you for the very informative piece of
writing. and may allah bless you and give you it's
share of khayr.
But i would just like to add one little thing to
this challenging question. wouldn't it be very
difficult for a women living alone, working, or
going to school to go about doing her business.
It's a harsh reality to know that times have
changed and women aren't just at home raising
children. they now have jobs and things of things
of the such. anyways my brothers and sisters in
muslim, my point is that times have changes and we
should try our very best to follow the Allah's
words. |

To: Xaqdoon,
Walaal adiga waxaa kaa khaldan meesha diinta islaamka laga soo qaato. Walaalkeen wuxuu kuu sheegay wixii diinta kusoo arooray ee uu rasuulkeennii udgoonaa yidhi adiguna waxaan meesha la ordaysaa shiikh hebel baa yidhi. Aakhiro waxaa lagu waydiinayaa maxaad rasuulka ugu jawaabteen ee maaha maxaad shuyuukhda ugu jawaabteen. Walaal amar dhanka Ilaahay iyo Rasuulkiisa muslimiinta waxaa laga doonayaa in ay yidhaahdaan waanu maqalnay waana qaadannay. |

Earth to Religous nuts, come in over.
Now you can't drive taxis. You've got to be kidding me!!! And while you're at it, consider that what Mohammed really meant when he said "Fear Allah" is not to be afraid, but to respect him. Like you respect your father. Allah is a loving God, not a vengeful one. If he were vengeful then he would not be good. You're all getting to hung up around the idea that illicit sex is a heinous offense. Killing innocent people is a heinous offense and Somalis have been doing that for generations. This is a FAR GREATER SIN in the eyes of Allah. Sex is minor league in comparison. Inshallah you will one day understand that. |

It's a joke dude. A play on the joisey accent. Can't you kinda picture it? I dunno, I thought it was funny.
How bout this one. Ayatollah Khomeini after his demise wakes up hanging from a trident and looking into the face of a giant satan and he says "wait a minute, this isn't paradise." And the satan says "No, and I'm not an American." |

u can't practise islam in parts . one has to diside either to be muslim not.one can't completly practise islam in non islamic enviroment,be it socialy,economically or politically.so my advise is be sincerely to Allah[s.wa]'s commands and religion.why discuss about taxi, when there is more dangerous haram with in the muslim communities.u talk about taxi when at the same time you support your warloads and your tribes.first clean your hearts, then that of your family then the taxi issue will solve it self. |

thank you very much brother for doing what you are doing for us and may GOD forgive you and the others and peace be upon all of us.
TO: w/salan everyone
my names amal and i'm 20 years of age,i came to the western when i was a little girl.
i can't speak very good somali language but my family has been teaching me so i know much now but not that much and it takes me almost a hour to
write one sentence in somali.
i never went to school to learn somali 'cause i had to help my mother around the house and i got a lot brothers and sisters so she couldn't handle by her self all that so that 's why i never went to sckool to learn my own language.
some of us or the young generation don't know somali .and absolutely have no idea about a lot of things about islam/muslim like my self.
i'm calling my self muslim but i'm really not.
you see, i don't go on dates or parties.
i don't even go to somali parties.
i never had a boyfriend and not planing eighter.
honestly i don't do a lot of things most girls
do but on the other hand i don't do a lot of thing muslims do eighter.i don't know what i am but as a muslim ,i don't really think that i am one.
just because i don't do a lot of things i should be doing,most of them is because i don't know what they are or how to do them correctly.
now i wanted to answer to some of you who said that you coudn't understand what our brother over here was saying in english so you asked him to
translate in somali.when you actually said this did any of you think about those ones who don't know somali? think about it those of us who don't know somali are mostly the ones who borned in the
western where our religion is so little and the ones who came when they were babies or little.
now those of you who don't know english are mostly those who came to the western when you were adults and ones who had no time/money to learn english.
those of you who don't know english came from were the religion and the culture were improtant than anything on earth,so you already know the religion and what you suppost to do- however don't you really think that those ones who have no idea
about the religion should have a chance to know
and do the right things ? we,who don't know the culture and the religion should know and you have to help us all the way 'cause that's the only way
you can learn something.most guys/ppl complain that we western girls/guys like western guys/girls more than our own or that we western girls/guys do the western things and it's culture.but seriously has it occur to anyone this on e simple word ?which is "WHY" . i'm sorry if i hurt anyone 's feelings but i just boosted what i tought was right-you can agree with me or disagree.
is all where your view point is .
TO:BROTHER I'VE LEARN SO MUCH THAT I DIDN'T KNOW BEFORE ,THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN AND KEEP UP THE WONDERFUL WORK!!! :)
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!! |

what is giong here? this must be bigest joke?
Where did you find this piece of bullshit? consider your sister wants to get to hospital emergecy? what she is going to do, walk all the way.
You should encourage taxi drivers instead of telling them to give up their livelihood. You must bum to think that way, anyway all Wadaads are bums who are at good bullshitting to the innocent,ignorent and the idiots?
let the guys work and drive woman passengers so you can collect your alms. deal?
Do you know more then half the world are populated by woman?
