[quote]With the Name of Allah, the most Merciful and Gracious! Dear happy Madam, Assalaamu’alaikum, The sentence you quoted above, I have written in general for us, not specific for Mahram e.g. in Quranic verse (2.282) I have seen the ratio of men and women 1:2 misunderstood by someone but I was fearful of pointing out due to the experiences. So far as my knowledge is concerned there is no Quranic reference favouring the presence of Mahram but according to my belief, “O people who have believed” is same for Ahadith as well. We know very well the Quranic verse (3.31), “In, Kuntum, Tohibbun-Allah-a, Fattabe-oonee, Yohbibkum-u-Allah……” (Say: If you love Allah, then follow me, Allah will Love you and forgive you your faults, and Allah is Forgiving and Merciful) It must be remembered that this “Fattabe-oonee (follow me- Holy Prophet, Muhammad (peace be upon him)” differentiates us from the nonmuslims. Regarding Mahram Ahadith are clear. Suppose we do not understand clearly and you know more than me, If there is doubt in some matter we have to follow the standard e.g. if I am in doubt that my Wodhhu has broken, although not, I will have to repeat fully. Suppose latest technology is not available and we are unable to see the “Shawal” moon due to clouds etc, although the moon is present, we have to fast next day in that area and same is for Mahram. This is the explanation or definition of Taqwa/piety i.e. if there is controversy then a woman goes to Macca/Madina with a Mahram it comes within Taqwa/piety otherwise not and guidance of Quran is for those who adapt Taqwa/piety (Hudallil-muttequeen (plural of Muttaquee/pious- Baqra, 2). The literary meanings of Taqwa/piety are “having absolute fear (of Almighty Allah)”. So a woman going to Macca/Madina without a Mahram is not an absolute fear of Almighty Allah. This was the result of Taqwa/piety that only 313 not well-equipped soldiers defeated more than one lac of the well-equipped soldiers, night span prolonged till Hazrat Bilal (Raa) had spoken for “Adhan-e-Fajr” and a dry river from many years had flown by putting into it only a small chit of Hazrat Umar (Raa) and it is heard that is still flowing without any break. There are many such examples. May Allah help and forgive us, Aameen! With regards! Loveall[/quote]
