Q: Can a male talk with his female cousins?
A:
A man's female cousin or his male cousin's wife are not his mehrams, so
there has to be purdah or hijaab between the two. In Surah Noor, verse
31, Almighty Allah mentions a list of mehram males with whom a woman
may interact; the cousin is not on this list.
| Q: How many prophets were sent to the earth?
A: Allah
Ta'aala alone knows the exact amount of messengers chosen by Him for
the guidance of mankind. A Hadeeth in Musnad Ahmad mentions of
approximately one hundred and twenty four thousand. (Musnad Ahmad V36
P619)
And Allah Ta'ala knows best.
