15 March, 2022
Q What are the rules when speaking with the opposite gender? To what extent is joking and banter allowed? Does culture or the country where you live play a role at all?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. 

All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.


In this fatwa:

  1. There are general guidelines in Islam on how to talk to the opposite gender
  2. No flirting in any shape or form is allowed. One cannot speak in a seductive way to the opposite sex 
  3. Any improper joke or banter will not be allowed. 
  4. Always be careful when speaking to the opposite gender based on respect.
