Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it permissible to leave one's wife and travel for more than six months to seek a livelihood?
Answer:
If he needs to travel to seek a livelihood for himself and her, there is nothing wrong with that. There is nothing wrong with that, except if it causes her harm; in that case, he can come for some days or some of the month and then return to his work. Today, praise be to Allah, fast means of transportation are available, unlike in the past.
