Regarding the travelling of females, does one require a mahram for a journey greater than the safr distance only or also whilst staying at the destination. Will it be sufficient if a mahram leaves u and fetches u from the destination
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Sister in Islam,
In principle, it is permissible for a Mahram to leave a female beyond the Safar distance and then pick her up from that location, on condition that it is safe for her to be there without her Mahram and there is no fear of Fitna on her chastity and honour.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
