A woman traveling from Jeddah to Makkah with a maid
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman asks, saying: I would like to go to Makkah to Umm al-Qura University. Is it permissible for me to go with the maid, knowing that I live in Jeddah?
The Shaykh:
If the maid is Muslim, meaning without a mahram, it is not permissible. Even if she is with a hundred women or a thousand women, it is not permissible for her to travel unless she has a mahram with her, or just the maid.
The questioner:
And residents of Jeddah.
The Shaykh:
For those who are residents of Jeddah, the mahram is waived. If you want to go from Riyadh or from Mada’in Salih, then the mahram is required. Yes.
