Is a mahram required for a woman performing Umrah with her female relatives if her mother's mahram is her sister's son?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

You are not permitted to travel with the caravan if you do not have a mahram with you, because your mother’s sister’s son is not your mahram; rather, he is your maternal aunt’s son. The prohibition of a woman traveling without a mahram has been established in the Sahihayn.
