The ruling on considering a ten-year-old boy a mahram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
My friend is divorced and has no mahram. She has a son who is ten years old. Is she allowed to take him as her mahram, considering that she lives in a non-Muslim country?
Answer:
A mahram must meet two conditions: he must be of legal age and he must be of sound mind. If he is not of legal age, he is not a mahram. Likewise, if he is of legal age but not of sound mind, he is not a mahram.
