What are the guidelines in women seeking treatment from men doctors? Is it permissible to visit a male doctor when a female doctor is available, especially when one may have to expose the Awra?
Answer:
In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,
In the situation where a Muslim female is in need of medical treatment, the endeavour should be that she is treated by a female medical doctor, preferably a Muslim.
