If the intended meaning is the khalwa (private seclusion) by which the mahr (dowry) is established and similar rulings, then refer to fatwas: 31017 and 39899. If the intended meaning is the khalwa between a man and a woman who is not his mahram (unmarriageable kin), then refer to fatwas: 4154 and 30653.
