Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible for a Muslim who has married a Muslim woman residing in a land of disbelief to leave his country and reside with her in her country?
Answer:
He should take her with him, since she is his wife, and move her with him to the lands of the Muslims. If she does not accept, let him divorce her and not reside in a land of shirk (associating partners with Allah). He should be like Muhaajir ibn Qays. This is not acceptable.
