Question:
As for the first question of this evening, the questioner says that she is a woman whose father prevents her from going to perform 'Umrah, a voluntary 'Umrah, and she is defying him and going with a mahram who is twelve years old. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
If it is the 'Umrah of Islam, and a mahram is prepared for her, then her father has no right to prevent her from performing the 'Umrah of Islam. But if it is a voluntary 'Umrah, it is not permissible for her to disobey her father; it is not permissible for her to disobey her father, because obeying the father is obligatory and the 'Umrah is recommended. So she should not disobey her father and go out for a voluntary 'Umrah without his permission. She also mentioned that she has a mahram who is twelve years old. A mahram must be of legal age. If the one with her has reached the age of accountability, he is a mahram. If he has not reached it, he is not a mahram. In any case, she does not go out for a voluntary 'Umrah except with her father's permission, even if she has a mahram with her.
