The ruling on leaving from Muzdalifah before the middle of the Night

Question :

An Egyptian man who lives in the Kingdom (of Saudi Arabia) met his mother at the airport of Jeddah, as she came from Egypt with the intention of performing Hajj. When she arrived, they went and performed the rites of Hajj.

Then, they left from 'Arafat to Muzdalifah in the company of a Mutawwif, and when they arrived in Muzdalifah, they combined the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers. Then, the Mutawwif forced them to leave to Mina before the middle of the night, meaning they did not spend the night at Muzdalifah and they only stayed there until before midnight. Then, they went against their will and completed their Hajj. So, what is due on them, while knowing that his mother traveled to Egypt and it is not possible for her to return. Is her Hajj permissible since she came on a plane without a Mahram?

Answer:

If the matter is as the questioner mentioned, the Hajj of the woman is correct and there is nothing due on her or her son for their leaving from Muzdalifah before midnight, because they were forced to do that.

In reference to the woman coming from Egypt without a Mahram, that is not permissible, and she must repent for doing that. However, that does not nullify her Hajj. Rather, her Hajj is correct. And Allâh is the Giver of success.
