The questioner:
A woman is advanced in age, over fifty years old. Is a mahram required for her?

The Shaykh:
Yes, if she is an old woman, she needs a mahram to support her? To take care of her? To carry her? She needs a mahram.

Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

Rather, she is more in need of a mahram than the energetic one. Yes.
