The Ruling on a Woman Traveling for 'Umrah with Her Adult Cousin
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner says: Shaykh, I am going to perform 'Umrah with my sister, and she is bringing her son, who is fourteen years old. Will the 'Umrah be valid, and will he be a mahram for her?
The Shaykh:
If he is an adult and of sound mind, he is a mahram for her, because he is her maternal uncle and his mother’s son. He is a mahram for her and for his mother. As long as he has reached puberty and is of sound mind, he is a mahram for 'Umrah and for other travels. Yes.
Another questioner:
Shaykh, may Allah reward you with good. May Allah grant you steadfastness and healing during the 'Id, and may He reward you with a righteous wife. May Allah keep you safe, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
May Allah keep us and you steadfast upon the truth, and guide us and you and the Muslims to the straight path.
The presenter:
May Allah do you good.
