أحسن الله إليك The Hadith about a man not being secluded with a strange woman except in the case of the presence of her Mahram. Does this mean that me and my female friends can’t take a taxi together since the drivers are male?

Ustadh AbdulAziz al-Haqqan

You can if it is safe, not traveling, and there is no khalwah (being alone with him) as Imam Ibn Baz said.
