Assalam ualykum,

Let me take a wild guess, the lady told you not to let her stay with you because being a girl she might be a fitna to the family right? I have heard people say that many times when some women needed a roof over her head because she got recently divorced or for some other reason. *[sigh}*

It's up to you what you want to do and so this is not directed at you. But in muy community I know of someone who had to stay in a shelter and of course it's for men and women and you can't have any privacy. And her own good friends wouldn't turned her down even though she only needed a place for a while until she could find an affordable apartment.

If your friend has no place to stay at for three weeks then isn't it a bigger fitna to have a Muslim sister out on the streets?

We really do need more women shelters just for Muslim women.

wassalam,
Saleema

assalam alaikum,

imagine if you turn this sister out into the street, and she dies.

imagine, she feels she is now practicing her deen correctly, and Allah has
answered her prayers, and then she is told she must leave.

Insha'Allah you will get so much reward for doing this, and it won't be
forever. My family have done it in the past.


My sister e-mailed me on feburary 14th while I was at work. It was the day
after her birthday. We sent each other e-mails (she was abroad) she told me that
she was having difficulty in finding accommodation, and asked me to pray for her.

The next day, as she was about to go and view an apartment to rent, she was hit
by a car, and died a few hours later.  My other sister who lived in the same
city could have taken her in, and said she would, but at the same time made her
feel unwelcome (they didn’t always get along), my sister was hurt, and chose to
find her own place. She had been staying with a Syrian family, and the family
was willing to let her stay, but my sister did not want to be a burden.

There were four of us; two brothers, and two sisters. Soumia and I were really
close. I don’t really have too much in common with the others.

If its really difficult, then find her somewhere else to stay, and above all
else, no matter how she seems on the outside, don’t humiliate her, don’t make her
feel low just because circumstances have put her in a situation where reliance
on others has become a necessity.

I know this was a little heavy, and I apologise. Please don’t feel like you
have to help, its better to feel that you want to. If you don’t then maybe you
could help find her somewhere. In any case may Allah reward you for your efforts.

salam wa rahmat'Allah
