Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Now they come as maids without a mahram and they perform Hajj with them, so is

Answer : May people perform Hajj with their maids. But they give them a shepherd like sheep. Is that right? Did you understand, O Sulayman? Meaning, it would be a good arrangement. They give them a bus to travel in from their country until they return with a group of women. As for her traveling with them, there is no doubt that accompanying them is safer for her than staying in the house alone, or being given to one of the neighbors or relatives. Therefore, we issue the ruling that she goes with them for 'Umrah and Hajj if no one remains in the house.
