Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on a maid traveling to perform the obligatory Hajj with a group consisting of several women? And does a person sin if he prevents her from performing the obligatory Hajj?
Answer:
A woman must not travel without a mahram, neither for Hajj nor for anything else, whether she is a maid or anyone else. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 9:2565, and a woman and a slave in a state of ihram are in danger. Therefore, no one may send a woman traveling without a mahram, whether she is his wife, his sister, his aunt, his maid, or anyone else, except with a mahram. The mahram is well known: her brother, or her husband, or her father, or her son, by blood or by breastfeeding. Yes.
