Question

We would like to send our mother (60 years old) to Hajj this year but would like to know if it's okey to send our mother (widow) with our Paternal uncle's son as he is planning to go for Hajj with his wife? Can he be considered as Mehram for my mother?

Answer

No, it is not permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
