Question
I am not sure but can you please help me? My wife and I are planing to go for hajj this year inshallah. But my wife grandmother also wants to go with us. My question is that can she go with us because I'm not her Mahram. I thank you for your time
Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
You will be a Mahram to your wife’s Grandmother, hence it will be permissible for her to go along with you’ll for Haj.
