The traditional view of most Islamic scholars, past and present, prohibits free-mixing between men and women. It is argued that direct references for this prohibition can not be found in either the [[Qur'an]] or the [[Sunnah]] of the Prophet; but this can not mean that such conduct is permissible in Islam. In seeking to create a complete way of life in Islam, the scholars have not failed to address the matter. Various scholars of Islam have [[Fiqh|formulated]] their opinions on this matter and acknowledged the practice of free-mixing as a crime punishable under [[Islamic law|Shari'ah laws]]. All of the Jurists have sourced their views from the Qur’an and the Sunnah of the prophet, using these as the basis of their argument.
