Question:
The questioner says: A woman who does not have a mahram, or who waited but could not find a mahram, is it permissible for her to appoint someone to perform Hajj on her behalf because she is in the category of one who is unable to perform it, or not? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
We have mentioned this. We said: If she has lost hope of finding a mahram, she appoints someone to perform Hajj on her behalf. But as long as she hopes to find a mahram, she waits.
