I said: "But there is a door between the two rooms, and I am a young man." She said: "I will close the door between me and you." So, I moved my belongings into the room and said to her: "Close the door." She said: "I need it open for ventilation. Leave it." I replied: "No, I am a young man, and you are a young woman, close it." She said: "Stay in your room. I will not come to you or approach you," but she refused to close the door. So I went to Abu Abdillah (as) and asked him about this matter. Imam (as) said: "Move out of there, for when a man and a woman are left alone in a house, the third one among them is Satan."
