"Khalwa"（独处）指的是一名非mahram（非至亲）的男子与女子单独相处，身边没有mahram或其他任何人在场。这种情况可能发生在私密场所，也可能发生在公共场所。无论哪种情况，伊斯兰教都禁止khalwa，而其中的男女双方都犯有罪过。

Khalwa relates to the presence of a non-mahram man and woman being on their own together without the presence of a mahram or any other person. This could happen in a private place, or a public place. In either case khalwa is forbidden from Islam, and both the man and woman involved are sinful.

独处于私密场所：这种情况可能发生在任何需要获得许可才能进入的地方，例如住宅楼中的房屋或卧室。

Khalwa in a Private Place : This could occur in any place that requires permission for entry, such as a house or bedroom in a residence building.

公共场所中的独处（Khalwa）：这可能发生在任何公共场所，只要其性质是不太可能有其他人经过或到达那里。例如森林中，或大学里一间偏僻的房间。

Khalwa in a Public Place : This could occur in any public place whose nature is that no other people would be likely to pass by or come there. An example of such a place would be in a forest or an isolated room in a university.

穆罕默德ﷺ说:“如果一名男子和一名女子独处于僻静之处,那么第三者便是撒旦。”布哈里传述,先知ﷺ说:“任何男子都不得与女子独处,除非有她的mahram在场。”一名男子站起来说:“真主的使者啊!我的妻子已出发前去朝觐,而我已被编入某某战役的军队。”先知ﷺ说:“你回去,与你的妻子一同朝觐。”

Muhammad (saw) said, “If a man and a woman are alone together in an isolated place, then the third is Shaitan.” Bukhari narrated that the Prophet (saw) said, “No man should stay with a lady in seclusion except in the presence of a mahram to her.” A man stood up and said, “O Rasul Allah! My wife has gone out intending to perform the Hajj and I have been enrolled in the army for such and such a campaign.” The Prophet (saw) said, “Return and perform the Hajj with your wife.”.
