I would like to find out with regards to non-mahram men entering the home to do some work or services.

Question

I would like to find out with regards to non-mahram men entering the home to do some work or services. e.g. carpenter, electrician, etc. My husband comes home from work and explains to the men the work needed to be done. Then he goes away back to work. They continue the work and I remain in another room. If they require something, they ask me. After they are done they call me and tell me the problem etc. Will it be OK to answer them? Will it be permissible for me to walk around the home when necessary with full hijaab. My house maid and non baaligh sons are present in the home. Kindly advise what can be done in such a situation.

Answer

This arrangement made by your husband is haraam. Everything described by you is haraam. You may not be in the house with the male workers. You may not converse with them. Your husband has to make another arrangement.
