A wife traveling with young children without her husband

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I am residing in this country with my wife and children. Is it permissible for my wife to travel with my young children without me in order to stay with her family for a month beyond the vacation period, given that it is difficult for me to travel with her?

Answer:
She does not travel. Since it is difficult for you to travel with her, she stays with you. She does not travel without a mahram (a relative one may not marry)
It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to travelلا يحل لامرأة تؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر أن تسافر
Sahih al-Bukhari 1088
except if she is accompanied by a mahram.
