Is it permissible to establish an educational center for languages and computers that brings together males and females in one classroom, with segregation in seating arrangements? And does this entail a suspicion regarding the earned money? What is the ruling on using textbooks that contain pictures of uncovered females? And does Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen's fatwa concerning magazine pictures apply to them?

It is advisable to avoid mixing males and females in the classroom and to allocate a special time for each. As for language teaching books that contain objectionable images, they can be permitted if there is no alternative and they are widespread, because the intent behind them is the benefit derived from the content, not the images. Selling them is permissible as long as their use is permissible.
