Female travelling for umrah with one's male cousin
Question
My khala and her 26 year old son are travelling for Umrah. My mom wants to go too. I am a 27 year old female. Can I accompany my mother? My brother can not go.
Answer
Your mother can go with them as your khala's son will be her mahram on the journey. You cannot accompany them on the journey as you do not have a mahram.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
