Q: is it permissible to open cafe without purdah facilities?

A: As a Muslim, you should not be asking these types of questions. A Muslim is a representative of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam). He needs to ask how do I live so that my Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) will be pleased.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
