The Conditions of Hajj for a Woman and the Mahram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
As for the conditions of Hajj for a woman?

Answer:
They are the same as the conditions for a man, except that she must have a mahram (a relative one may not marry) present. The presence of a mahram is required. If she has a mahram and the other conditions are met, she performs Hajj. It is obligatory for her to perform Hajj once. If she has the money but cannot find a mahram, she waits. If it becomes possible, she performs Hajj; otherwise, she appoints someone to perform Hajj on her behalf. If she becomes certain that she will not find a mahram, she appoints someone to perform Hajj on her behalf. Yes.
