Female greeting non-mahrams
Question
I wanted to know if a female can say Assalaamu alaikum to a male non mahram and vice-versa?
Answer
No, this should be strictly avoided especially among young males and females.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
