Muwatta Malik #1831
The Description of the Prophet, may Allah Bless Him and Grant Him Peace
Yahya said that Malik was asked, "Can a woman eat with other than
her relative or slave?" Malik said, "There is no harm in that if it is
in a manner which is accepted for a woman to eat with men."
Malik said, "A woman sometimes eats with her husband and with others
he dines with or with her brother in the same way. It is disapproved
of for a woman to be alone with a man when there is no relationship
between them by blood, marriage or suckling that would prevent him
marrying her."
