The majority of scholars hold the view that it is unlawful for a woman to travel without a mahram, except in cases of necessity. However, some jurists permit her travel if a mahram is unavailable, provided she is part of a large and safe company, especially if her mahram accompanies her until she embarks and another mahram receives her upon her arrival.
