Q & A

Q:->
brother
I got 1 question, what if a women divorce, didn't marry or widow?
What are the rules? Sorry if I am being silly but I want to know
correct thing.
Thank you

A:->Sister Julfika,
Mahram is not the husband only. Any person who qualifies as her Mahram
according to the Sharee'ah may accompanyher. The ruling that a woman
may not travel alone is from the following Hadeeth:
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (1729) and Muslim (2391) from Ibn 'Abbaas (may
Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) said: "No woman should travel except with a
mahram, and no man should enter upon her unless there is a mahram with
her." A man said: "O Messenger of Allaah, I want to go out with such
and such an army and my wife wants to go for Hajj." He said: "Go out
with her."
In case of the sister above,one possible option if she has no husband
to support, may be her children (her sons, if any) when they become
able, and can take her to the Hajj.
