My sister travels all over the world without a mahram.

Question

My sister travels all over the world without a mahram. I have warned her not to come to my house if she undertakes a journey without a mahram. Is my decision right? Family members say that I am too harsh.

Answer

Your sister is in gross error. Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day should not travel without a mahram. Thus, your sister's evil act borders on kufr. Your attitude of not allowing your sister to visit if she travels without a mahram is 100% correct.
