Can She Perform Hajj With a Group of Women?

Is it permissible for me to send my maid for the obligatory Hajj with a group of women traveling with a Hajj group?

It is impermissible for a woman to travel for the Hajj or other than the Hajj except with a Mahram, whether she is a maid or not, for that which the Prophet said (Peace and blessings be upon him) has said:

"It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to travel the distance of two days, except with a Mahram." [Al-Bukhari, volume 2, pages 35-36]

And a group of women does not constitute a Mahram and, likewise, nor does the Hajj package group and this does not remove her from that which is forbidden in the mentioned Ahadith.
