If she travels for the obligatory Hajj without a but with a trusted company, many scholars permit it. However, for a voluntary Hajj, the majority of scholars do not permit it, but Ibn Taymiyyah holds the view that it is permissible with a trusted company. The miqat for this woman is Qarn al-Manazil. If she passes by al-Juhfah, she should assume ihram from there. If she enters Jeddah without having assumed ihram, she must return to the miqat, or she owes a sacrifice (dam) if she assumes ihram from Jeddah.
