Question: Regarding the mixing of women with men during pilgrimage\u2014especially during circumambulation (\u1e6daw\u0101f), where a woman may be pressed closely against a man, whether with desire or without\u2014does this occur merely out of necessity?
\nIs it permissible for the Imam (leader) of the Muslims, if he oversees the pilgrimage, to separate the area of circumambulation for women from that of men, and likewise the area of walking between \u1e62af\u0101 and Marwah, as is done for people with disabilities (those using wheelchairs)? Or is this mixing something legislated and established since the time of the Messenger (May Allah bless him and his family and grant them peace), when they performed \u1e6daw\u0101f closely together?
\nOr were they few in number then, and the situation today is due to the large crowds?
\nDo Muslims have the right to demand separation, or is that not legislated?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
