In Islam, a "Mahram" is a relative that one is not permitted to marry. Muhammad has forbidden all Muslim women from traveling more than a 2-days journey without being accompanied by a Mahram or her husband (Sahih Bukhari 3:29:87).

Our Debate Questions:
1) Is it fair to deny women the right to travel by themselves, but to allow men to do such travel?
2) How would a man feel if he could not travel anywhere unless accompanied by a female mahram or his wife?
