Hadrat Jaber ibn Abdullah states that a believer in God and the Day of Judgement should never be alone with a non-mahram woman. Any meeting should occur in the presence of a mahram (close male relative). This principle applies to both meetings and travel. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized that when a man and a non-mahram woman are alone, a third party – Shaytan – is present. Hadrat Ibn Abbas narrates a similar instruction: a man should not be alone with a woman unless a mahram accompanies her, and a woman should not travel without a mahram.

This internal shift, a detachment from the prohibited, constitutes genuine Hijrat.
