pilgrimage

Can a woman work and save to pay for the Hajj trip of her mother?

Question:

My mother, who is now an old lady, does not have enough money to go for the Hajj pilgrimage. Since I am married, can I work and save up the required amount to send her for Hajj?

Yes, a woman is allowed to work if she has her husband’s permission and if it does not negatively effect her religion.
