302 | I know that in school you are not allowed to have girlfriends and boyfriends but is a girl allowed to be just plain friends with a boy and visa versa? | ||
If the boy and girl are baligh (in to adolescent), whereby they have developed sexual attributes (desires), then they are not allowed to have friendship with the opposite sex. The Islamic ruling is that a man and woman can not be friends with those that are Gair Mehram, i.e. those eligible for marriage. However one still has to act with respect and good manners toward others. | |||
