The ruling on a domestic worker entering the state of ihram without a mahram for Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : There is a family who wants to perform Hajj, and they have a domestic worker without a mahram. What should they do? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer : First, why did they bring this woman without a mahram? It is not permissible for a person to bring a woman without a mahram. Second, if the matter is now a reality before us, and they want to perform Hajj, we say: if no one is left in the house, let them take her for Hajj out of dire necessity, because her going with them for Hajj is safer for her than her remaining alone in the house. So let them take her, and let them strive to bring her mahram. If it is possible to bring him during this period before Hajj, let them do so. Yes.
