Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: What is the ruling on traveling to Islamic countries for the purpose of tourism, knowing that these countries contain many clear wrongdoings, and that person does not condemn them?

Answer:
Do not go to the wrongdoings. Tourism is not obligatory. You can travel to countries that do not have wrongdoings, praise be to Allah. Yes.
