    How can I avoid free mixing and "sisterliness" or "aunties"

    Report bad ads?

    I am often put into environments in my family where guests free mix, and it often leads to fitnah, and on one occasion it was particularly bad and lasting for a long time with a girl much younger than me but pubescent when I was 18, and when I was 18 another encounter with such a girl and her older sister who was older than me and saw me as a "little brother", and on other occasions it would be adults and I would think much of this especially he older ones but I am starting to be troubled, for instance, a sunni shia couple from other than our homeland came over recently, and the woman was in her early thirties, and I felt uncomfortable. when i went to go with the man to pray in congregation i found out he was shia and our rituals and adhaan were completely different!!! i felt uncomfortable trying to keep up. even when i talk to an "auntie" in her 50s i felt it was indecent to talk over the phone for no reason and i felt deep shame, despite her always saying i am like her "child" due to the close friendship with my mother. what should i do, given the fact that disability services is taking a long time to help me get a job and get me through the hiring process after filling out bureacracy and I can't drive and i depend on my mother? (oh, and i rely on disability services to get me to learn how to drive, too, given my autism)

    Re: How can I avoid free mixing and "sisterliness" or "aunties"

    I am sorry brother, but I do not understand your question.
    Who is this "much younger but pubescent girl"??? Is she your aunts daughter??
    Certainly talking on the phone with a 50 years old lady about her helping you with money is not making you feel uncomfortable. If it is required, then it is not a problem. Is it the way she is talking to you that bothers you?

    I also fail to see what the shia couple who had different rituals come into all this??


    I am also very sorry that you have trouble with bureaucracy. Unfortunate, such problem seem to be the one and only things that everyone on the planet seems to share!
    I hope your problems are resolves soon.

    no no no, sister "auntie" is a term in the indian subcontinent and in turkey and turkic cultures for "elderly woman or woman who is old enough to be older than your mother (or as old as your mother)" i am turkish. sorry, i was just venting i guess, with the prayers, i tend to get off topic. i guess i was just frustrated. no the girl was the eldest daughter in a family that was friends with our family, and whose mother knew my mother. they were visiting for eid. me and the elder woman weren't discussing money, we were talking for no reason. sometimes my mother invites guests and the men and women free mix. that's what makes me uncomfortable. the foreign woman (in 30s) would be referred to as "abla" (elder sister) because she is old enough to be considered superior and not "marriageable" and btw she is utrkic so we can understand each other and use same words. sorry for misunderstanding

    Praise be to Allaah.

    The meeting together, mixing, and intermingling of men and women in one place, the crowding of them together, and the revealing and exposure of women to men are prohibited by the Law of Islam (Shari'ah). These acts are prohibited because they are among the causes for fitnah (temptation or trial which implies evil consequences), the arousing of desires, and the committing of indecency and wrongdoing.

    Among the many proofs of prohibition of the meeting and mixing of men and women in the Qur’aan and Sunnah are:

    Verse No. 53 of Surat al-Ahzab, or the Confederates (Interpretation of the meaning); "...for anything ye want, ask them from before a screen: that makes for greater purity for your hearts and for theirs..."

    In explaining this Verse, Ibn Kathir (May Allaah have mercy on him) said: "Meaning, as I forbade you to enter their rooms, I forbid you to look at them at all. If one wants to take something from them, one should do so without looking at them. If one wants to ask a woman for something, the same has to be done from behind a screen."

    The Prophet (May peace and blessings be upon him) enforced separation of men and women even at Allaah’s most revered and preferred place, the mosque. This was accomplished via the separation of the women’s rows from the men’s; men were asked to stay in the mosque after completion of the obligatory prayer so that women will have enough time to leave the mosque; and, a special door was assigned to women

    Assalamu alaikum

    1. Do not disobey Allah in order to please people
    2. Maintain your distance from the opposite gender
    3. Be firm
    4. Be a man

    Does your family know you're Muslim?

    yes, they know I'm Muslim, and the only ones in my post-divorce family besides my father and his wife who are practicing at a basic level are my mother and MAYBE mybrother (THOUGH, I dont know, I have no idea what goes on in his life, we haven't spoken in years despite my efforts to reach out to him, and once his effort to reach out to me that resulted in him yelling at me). My father would probably never tolerate me calling random women, although i remember he has had free mixing before, but he's gotten more and more religious over the years, and he is strict about my interactions with the opposite gender considering my fitan in the past, but hey, my mom won the custody battle, and he barely plays a role in my life, dont know if he doesnt want to or if he's just moved on or if ive pushed him away......i also have a sister who ran away with a non muslim due to my mom not allowing it, and my mom eventually allowed it and they married she's not practicing as far as i can tell and doesn't like to talk about religion, but she keeps some religion intact, like not drinking alcohol, not eating pork, fasting at least a day during ramadan, visiting my mother for eid.

    I see brother. Do you live in a Muslim community? Can you find practicing Muslims in your locality or Masjid whom you can spend time with?

    I Live in america. There are many muslim families in my jamaat who practice full gender segregation. i just don't know that many, if any except
    1.(the one who i intermingled with two girls, i only intermingled with them because there was only 1 table and it was my non practicing sister's house we were at and i was surrounded by supervision)
    as for other masjids, i am too shy, and i fear their backwardsness and love of dictators. like erdogan. here in america we have something known as ICNA, a convention where muslims gather, and they always invite firaun erdogan, and once they openly discussed how to kidnap turkish dissidents from abroad and send them to turkey. i even met a sheikh who denied my interpretation of a dream because in his words, "your dream does not mean erdogan will fall from power because he is the best president in the whole wide world, and he will continue to be the best president in the whole wide world forever." (erdogan's approval rating is 33.6 percent, down from 39.8 percent in november 14, and there is a major economic crisis in turkey, which is seen as the number one problem in turkey. he even had to form an alliance with the ultranationalist mhp to stay in power last two elections due to rising authoritarianism, but luckily his popularity was temporarily boosted, then shrunk by a coup attempt, which he overreacted to).

    also, i do not know what to say, and i already know so many people and am comfortable. i am kind of a hermit, too. I also attend one other masjid, though, but i have trouble making friends or attending events due to my autism, depression, introversion, anti-social tendencies, and complacency among other factors

    Oh I thought you live in Turkey!!

    Btw I don't see why you brought Erdogan into this discussion but did I read that correctly...Firawn Erdogan? Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji'oon! I like Tayyip Erdogan. Can you please help me understand why you think he is so bad?

    We can agree to disagree in the end, it is not a big deal but I want to understand because you have better knowledge about Turkey and its politics than me.

    Erdogan is the only leader in the entire world whom I admire. I cannot comment on these allegations unless I hear the other side of the story.

    But do you agree that he is at least better than previous ones who secularized Turkey like Ataturk?

    Thanks for your views by the way.

    Turkey is still secular,nothing chance,there are prostitutes,gambling,alcohol,night clubs,all things you can find anywhere else.You can get scammed and police wont even help.Plus some statistics show that the number of atheists in turkey is growing,not to mention that their islam is a bit,lets just say a bit different,starting from imams who are told to shave their beard.

    Anyway am not gonna make anti erdogan propaganda,i used to like him before but because of many things turkey does he lost my respect.I cant talk about what the brother said but,this link with israel,those 6 soldiers that he demands from Greece,making deal with albania and breaking it because albanians dont close schools of gylen,trying to annex cyprus, raising tensions in greece by transgressing its waters while being allies (nato) etc.Maybe all that talk about islam was to get more votes,after all it was muslims who saved him during the coup.Or maybe even the couo was planned.Allah alem,we cant be sure for anything.

    But the way turkey behaves seems very dishonest to me.Anyway im out of subject here,just commented to say that none of these people deserve our admiration. Save it for those who actually do smth for Islam,like good scholars,or for Mahdi,if He comes in our time.

    Brother I feel like you have been brain washed by these media outlets and possibly also influenced by Gulen movement. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    why are you muslims so "anti west?" you call out for europe to take in syrian migrants while denying saudi arabia should take some (saudi arabia took precisely zero, while lecturing europe on taking more), and the west took in so many "anti west muslims" what did you think was gonna happen? they would grow islamophobic, for you being ungrateful! and supporting dictators who fight against them! if you hate it in the west so bad, why not move to pakistan or malaysia, or make hijrah to indonesia or saudi arabia or uae, etc.? eh? what media outlets am i supposed to believe? RT? the mouthpiece of dictator vladimir putin? Telesur? the mouthpiece of maduro? TRT world? the mouthpiece of a government that is anti journalist? according to politicians such as kemal kilicdaroglu, who ive heard with my own ears? and btw, this is not just media outlets, ive actually spoken to refugees......they HATED IT in turkey. and i have family there. i have relatives who went to jail and were tortured for false charges. AND I KNOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE WHOSE FAMILY WERE JAILED OR HARASSED. Qur'an 36:10 It is alike to them whether you warn them or do not warn them, they will not believe.

    You are right about some things but these kind of media bbc and cnn etc always portrey muslims very bad.Mass media is a way to control and lie to the population.This is why peoplr think muslims are terorists,all cuz of media. We shouldnt trust anyone blindly.
    I like how you touched this topic of emigrants.Eu countries have a lot of problems too and some are in crisis,they arent forced to take refugees in yet they face immigrantion and refugees from everywhere everyday.As i said in another post,uae can build massive artificial islands why cant they build a small city or two for the refugees,what would it cost them? Nothing.
    We cant expect from others to help us if we arent helping each other.

    Am sorry,i didnt want to cause you this or try to change your view,i just wanted to say that reality is way different then what we see or hear and especially for the politicians everything can be a lie.Everything is diff than what it seems.

    No but i live very close to turkey,and there is a lot of turkish influence and inheritance.Thats why am sure.Ive known people who studied in turkey and others who studied in arabia and were completely diff.The imams who studied in turkey shave their beard completely,dont raise hands in salah,dont join ranks in salah,celebrate the bday of the prophet saws etc.Idk,its really diff islam.And am sure about the other things i said.But thats not important.

    That idk if he is a muslim that prays or he does this for votes.I have no idea,so I cant hate him,or dislike him,am saying turkey always,i cant blame him.Maybe he is really a muslim and has a good plan thats why hes doing this,or maybe he is pretending to be muslim,or he is a muslim who is deviated,only Allah knows,but if it was one of the past righteous khalipha,im sure they would forgive those 6 people.
    Astagfirullah,am taking bad,look just,just admire and care about people who clearly benefit muslims.Others dont deserve your admiration
