Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Is it permissible for a woman to go out for the obligatory Hajj if her husband is always delaying it? Is she allowed to go out without his permission?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to travel a distance of two days, or three days, or to travel at all, except with a mahram, whether for Hajj or otherwise. She does not go out without a mahram. If a woman cannot find a mahram, she waits, she waits. If she becomes desperate about finding a mahram, she appoints someone to perform Hajj on her behalf, the Hajj of Islam. A mahram is necessary.
