Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: Is a woman who goes to perform Hajj without a mahram, and who is from the people of Makkah, sinful?
Answer:
Meaning, she goes from Makkah to perform Hajj at 'Arafah, or is this not travel? This is not travel; it does not require a mahram. But if the intention is for her to go to Makkah from a distant land, and her original home is that she is from the people of Makkah, then a mahram is necessary. It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to travel except with a mahram. Yes.
