Is it permissible for me to leave my wife and infant child, who have no mahram other than me, and travel to bring my mother from her country after I sent her a visa, knowing that the journey takes two hours, and that her nephew will arrive after Ramadan, and I want her to catch the month to perform Umrah and Hajj with us?
The presence of a mahram for a woman is a condition for travel, not for residence. If the wife is in a safe place, secure for herself and her child, and she does not fear remaining alone, then the husband can travel to accompany his mother.
