The questioner:
This questioner says: I have relatives who travel without a mahram, and when I rebuke them, they argue by saying, "We are a safe group of women." Is their statement correct?
The Shaykh:
No,Sahih al-Bukhari 1088 except if she has a mahram with her. It is not permissible for her, even if she is with a group of women; women are not a mahram for her. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This is the reason.
The Shaykh:
If she is afflicted with an illness or something of that sort, who will take care of her? Who will carry her? Who will take care of her and take her to the doctor? A wali must be with her. Yes.
