Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sistani (may God protect him):
It is not permissible to joke with a non-mahram (a person who is not closely related) if it involves inappropriate conversation according to the principles of the Shari'ah, even if it does not lead to suspicion, as a precautionary obligation.

Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khamenei (may God protect him):
If there is a fear of temptation or if it leads to corruption, then it is not permissible.
