[quote]Assalam o Alaikum,

I agree with the moderator, we have to follow the rule once it is made and our discussion is only to analyze that the rule is accordance to the Islamic Sharia' or not.

[quote] As Saudi Govt is Muslim one, can the Quranic verse defend it, for this rule i.e. NO entry of a woman without Mahram?  [/quote]

But do you really think that Saudi government is Islamic, do remember its "Kingdom". But still I believe that we have to follow the rules made by the government.

Are we following this rule by making groups for travelling to Makkah or Madina. Remember in group we always declare someone as a Mahram, who is infact an unknown person. Isn't it cheating with the govt.

Secondly, if women are safe while travelling to any other place then why isn't she safe when going to Makkah / Madina.

Now, I would like to quote an incident. Here in Pakistan, there are few programs on different T.V channels in which people asks about their Islamic problems and some scholors respond to those queries.

Once there was a question by an air hostess of PIA. She asked that once she was in Jeddah and due to change in the flight schedule she has to stay there for 2 days. She said that she could not control her as she was so close to Makkah and decided to perform Umra with another colleague air hostess. Her question was "will she be accountable for that, as no mahram was present with her?"

Can you guess what was the answer from 2 different scholors..... I would also request you to give your opinion on this issue.

Regards
