Question

My mother decided to go for Hajj in 2014 because her body is not always good. My father died of cancer in 2003. We are three sisters, I am working in a private company. Neither my mother nor any of our male relatives can go with her as a mahram to perform Hajj, I am my mother's eldest child and unmarried daughter, in this case can I go to perform Hajj with my mother? My mother can not go to Hajj because there is no mahram! It is good to say that my mother is the only child and she has no brother. 6227945723

It is not permissible for women to travel without a mahram, sister. Hajj is not obligatory on women even if they are not mahram. As such, Hajj is not obligatory on your mother as she is not a mahram. So he will not be a sinner if he does not perform Hajj. If he has a strong desire to perform Hajj, then he can perform Hajj instead. Or your husband will become your mother's mahram after your marriage. Then the girl will be able to go on Hajj with her son-in-law. If he performs Hajj without mahram, even though Hajj is not obligatory, and it is forbidden to perform Hajj without mahram, then Hajj will be performed with makrooh. There were prayers for you and your mother. May Allah bless your father with the blessings of pure forgiveness and grant him a high position in Paradise. Amen. On the authority of Abi Saeed Al-Khudri, the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said, He said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allaah and the Day of Resurrection to travel for three days or more without her father, her son, or her husband or her brother or a mahram . (Sahih Muslim, Hadith No. 423) يشترط في حج المرأة من سفر زوج أو محرم بالغ عاقل غير مجوسي ولا فاسق مع النفقة عليه وأطلق المرأة فشمل الشابة والعجوز لإطلاق النصوص (البحر الرائق, كتاب الحج -2 / 552, المحيط البرهانى, كتاب الحج , الفصل الأول -3 / 394 ولو حجت بلا محرم جاز مع الكراهة الخ- (قوله مع الكراهة) أي التحريمية للنهي في حديث الصحيحين «لا تسافر امرأة ثلاثا إلا ومعها محرم» زاد مسلم في رواية «أو زوج» (رد المحتار, كتاب الحج , Karachi Press-2/465 4581677329
