[quote]Assalaamu’alaikum, I my wish mothers, sisters and daughters to visit the Holy cities but regarding the subject, “Women travelling Alone to Mecca/Medina” I have the following points in my mind, which may help someone or someone may help me. 1. The Quranic verse, “Ateeu-Allah-ha,.Ateeu-ur-Rasul Wa Olil Amr” (Obey Allah, His prophet and those who are rulers upon you). Sorry for any mistake or number of the verse as I am unable to recall at this time. As Saudi Govt is Muslim one, can the Quranic verse defend it, for this rule i.e. NO entry of a woman without Mahram? 2. If Quran gives the facility of “Istataat” for Hajj (3: 97) which is a Fardh and why not for “Umra” and other visits? 3. Why does Saudi Govt ignore a number of Ahadith as mentioned in his following quote (with apologies) and how can Saudi Govt be convinced by our decision? “It needs to be appreciated that there are a number of Ahadith in which directives have been given by the Prophet (sws) for the well-being of the Muslims. However, if, the circumstances in which such directives have been given change, then as is the case with all conditional directives such directives may no longer apply in the changed circumstances” 4. How many females are in the world those have NO Mahram and If Saudi Govt has banned then what are those hindrances, which our mothers, sisters and daughters are facing to arrange the Mahram? There are some orders of Islam the late effects of which, we can not understand easily. According to me, the presence of Mahram strongly favours a woman. Suppose someone dares to have some doubts openly or in one’s heart, about a woman without Mahram, Although God is Samee & Baseer, but she seems to have no way to defend herself in the society where she has to live. But with Mahram, no one can do some misunderstandings. Can you think of these misunderstandings, which can create different types complications? Islam wants a healthy society. Furthermore a woman is weak physically by nature and in the journey and within these cities, there are some difficult places too, so if a woman slips somewhere or have some other problem, then remember that only a Mahram can easily touch, catch or lift her. But on the other hand the hesitation of the others and that woman may create a too much hindrance in the help. I am sorry if any body feels something spicy or bitter as I am perhaps notorious one now a days at this website. May Allah help and forgive us, Aameen![/quote]
