Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible for me to transport female teachers to an area about seventy or eighty kilometers from Riyadh, knowing that the first two to ride with me are two women and the last two to get off are two women.

Answer:
It is not permissible, because seventy kilometers is a journey close to travel, so do not go with them to bear their sins. Yes. And women traveling without a mahram is a problem. A great problem and a disobedience to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). It is a danger to the woman. You are hearing me now; in a short time, the sixth [incident] will occur against women on the roads. And a number of them will be destroyed by punishments from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and sometimes bandits will attack them and take them, all of this is due to the disobedience of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in a woman traveling without a mahram.
