Regarding a mahram for a sister who wishes to travel to seek knowledge - Shaykh Muhammad al-Maliki
Question: Next question is from California, from a sister, she says: I am now 25 and I am not married and I would like to make hijrah or go and study the Deen of Allaah. I would like to go and study at Ummul Quraa. However, there is no mahram to stay with me. Is it possible for me to travel with a mahram who will drop me off in Makkah and then they will come back and I will be there in the dormitory of the sisters?
Answer: Alhamdulillah, the sister from California who says that she is 25 years old and she wants to migrate to Makkah and study in the Jamiah Ummul Quraa University and she's asking if she can have a mahram accompany her on the journey and then leave her there.
Yes, it is allowed for the women to be accompanied by a mahram to the destination she wants, and then the mahram can leave her there if she is safe. The mahram is only needed for the journey, not in the place where she is going to stay. So if the mahram is going to accompany her to Makkah and then leave her there and he returns, this is allowed.
But, my advice to this sister is, first of all, we make duaa for her, may Allaah سبحانه و تعالى provide her a brother who marries her and can Inshaa Allaah provide her with shelter and whatever she needs. Then she can easily stay in Makkah, Inshaa Allaah تعالى. But, answering her question here, yes it is allowed for her to take a mahram with her to Makkah and then the mahram returns there is no problem with that. Wallahu A'lam.
