Respected Sister
Since she would be travelling throughout the journey without a mahram, it would be impermissible. Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said: “It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah Ta‘ala and the Last Day to travel for three days or more (the shar‘ee safr distance, equal to 77km) except with her father, son, husband, brother or (any other) mahram”. (Saheeh Muslim #3270)
Allah Ta‘ala knows best
Was Salaam
