I am estranged from my father, I have no brothers and I am not married. In this situation how am I able to travel to and within Saudi Arabia, if I ever plan to go there? If I go there, it is very unlikely that my grandfather is able to come, because he is too old. I don’t have any uncles. What does Islam say about women in situations like this? I have 5 sisters. Thanks
In fact, Mahram is not important if you travel with a group . Mahram is a condition for woman if she wants to travel far of her hometown in a non safe place or country. The prophet even asks men to travel together not lonely. Some non-muslims understand Mahram condition Incorrectly or they want to.
Islam understands woman, doesn’t ask her to do a hard job, travailing far with out help. Islam want men to Pamper their women, not leaving them alone, or doing an offensive job as kissing men feet and clean them as chrestians believe!
