The shaikh, Dr. ʿAbdullah Al-Bhukārī, may Allāh protect him, said:
Women Need to Be Looked After and Protected
Imām Ibn Taimiyyah said:
So this is Maryam–she needed someone to be her guardian and look after her . . . so how about women other than her?
And this is something well-known through trial and experience: women need [what they do] of being looked after and protected, what young boys does not. And whatever keeps her covered more and more protected, is [also] better [overall] for her.

[المرأة تحتاج الحفظ والصّيانة]
قال الإمامُ ابن تيميّة:"فهذه مريمُ احتاجت إلى مَن يكفُلُها…فكيف بغيرها مِنَ النّساء.
وهذا أمر معروفٌ بالتّجربة:
أنّ المرأة تحتاجُ مِنَ الحفظ والصّيانةِ ما لا يَحتاجُ إليه الصّبيُّ،وكلّ ما كان أسْترَ لها وأصونَ كان أصلحَ لها"
