Son-in-law as a Mahram
Question
I am a mother and my daughter will be going for Umrah with my son-law. My mother and I want to go for Umrah with them too. Can my son-in-law be a Mahram for my mother and me?
Answer
A.Your son-in-law is considered a Mahram (non-stranger) to you and your mother. Hence, you and your mother may travel for Umrah with your son-in-law as your Mahram. (Majmaul-Anhur 1/323)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
