Does a woman perform 'Umrah without a mahram (a relative one may not marry) while she is in Makkah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh 'Abdullah, regarding a woman who came down from al-Ta'if to Makkah to care for...

The Shaykh : A look, what?

The questioner : She came down from al-Ta'if to Makkah to perform 'Umrah.

The Shaykh : She vowed to go from al-Ta'if to Makkah.

The questioner : Huh? She came down, then went up, like that.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : To perform 'Umrah, she and her son. When she arrived in Makkah, her son refused to take her to the Haram, so she asked, and they told her it is not permissible for her to perform 'Umrah except with her son, who is her mahram, in Makkah, meaning.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : She went back, O traveler, and did not perform the 'Umrah. So, so we say about her, like...

The Shaykh : So we say she is like what we said regarding Hajj.

The questioner : You must go back. She asked one person, and he said that it is not permissible to modify the 'Umrah except with the one in the state of ihram, and she is in Makkah.

The Shaykh : Correct, no, that is not correct.

The questioner : Yes, this, she went back according to her statement, and her son was not pleased, meaning.

The Shaykh : The one who issued the ruling to him.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : But if I go back, what am I going to say until it is not correct?

The questioner : Do you understand me even?

The Shaykh : And they are not upon them, they are the ones who make things right.
