Welcoming Guests

O, Dear Sister…

It is inappropriate that you receive and welcome male guests, when you are alone at home…. Also, it is inappropriate that you serve them by offering drinks or sweets… and don’t hold long courteous conversations with them…. excuse yourself out of such a situation by apologizing and don’t feel shy.

However, what happens in our societies today is from the evil customs which we imported from the evil countries… and this is why corruption and depravity are augmenting, God forbid us.

God Al-Mighty said: ﴾And when you ask of them any goods, ask them from behind a curtain, this is purer for your hearts and for their hearts﴿. The Allies-53

And in a text for Imam Ali (A.S) to his son Imam Hassan (A.S): “The strong commitment to the veil is much better for you and the women, than falling in suspicions, and them (the women) leaving the house is as important as the entrance of people you don’t trust on them, and if you were able to prevent them from knowing males other than you, do it”. The Main Road to Eloquence- book 31
