The following is a translation from an Arabic Q&A by Sheikh Ata Abu Rashtah. Question: Assalamualaikum I have 3 separate questions , related to the social system 1. The Reality is as such. There is a classroom where the men and women sit in a mixed way, but some sincere men sit away from the mixed men and women. Would they not be sinful for being in a place where there is mixing happening, even though they are not party to it. You have replied in an old question while discussing about the mixing in the celebrations that: mixed studies in Universities where the women’s rows are not separate from the men’s row are Haraam. However, if a shab studies in a mixed university but does not walk with female students, does not deliberately sit with them, he is only interested in his studies and his relationship with others is restricted to the minimum due to being a student in a mixed university. Then the Hizb does not see this as crossing the line which will effect
"Thoughts are the greatest wealth of any nation."
