Is it permissible for me to travel with my mother and sister to perform Umrah, while there is no mahram for me?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the 'Umrah is obligatory (the 'Umrah of Islam), then there is no harm in traveling with trustworthy companions. However, if it is a voluntary 'Umrah, it is not permissible to travel without a mahram, unless there is no way to remain safe in your current location. In such a case, it is permissible to adopt the view of those who permit traveling with trustworthy companions for any journey of obedience.
