Will women be able to travel to Saudi Arabia without a Mahram (male guardian)?
As a part of the Rihla 2008 group, Muslim women with no accompanying mahram will receive special permission to travel with the group and participate in the program, insha’Allah. Due to past difficulties, we are working more diligently that no visas are delayed. It is still always preferred that those women who can participate with a qualified mahram, do so.
