If she truly cannot find work without mixing, she is excused until she finds it, keeping full hijab with no khalwa, no handshaking, and no soft speech, and she leaves it once she can do without it. She keeps looking for work among women, for Allah Jalla wa ʿAlā says, the meaning of which is: whoever fears Allah, He will make a way out for him.
