Asalamu Aleikum my question is what to do in case a revert sister is forced to work in a environment that there is free mixing. She has no one to provide for her she left her home bcs of her religion but now she has to work for herself what is the shariah in this case? Jazak Allahu Khayran

Ustadh AbdulAziz al-Haqqan
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.
