Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: You mentioned, Honorable Shaykh, that a woman does not travel except with a mahram, except for hijrah. The question is: What is meant by hijrah?
Answer:
Hijrah from the lands of disbelief to the lands of Islam. If she needs to migrate to escape for the sake of her religion and she has no mahram with her, she leaves to escape for the sake of her religion. Some of the female Companions migrated alone from Makkah to al-Madinah.
