Is it permissible for a woman to travel without a mahram if the road is safe?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the answer to the one who said it is permissible for a woman to travel without a mahram on a short journey when the road is safe?

Answer:
The answer is the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): It is not permissible. We say it is not permissible for her. The Messenger said it is not permissible, and we say it is permissible? It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to travel except with a mahram. After the words of the Messenger, no one’s words are valid. Yes.
