The Ruling on Traveling to the Lands of Disbelievers for Tourism

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible to travel to the lands of disbelievers for the purpose of tourism only, given that I will stay away from places of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation)?

Answer:
It is not permissible to travel to the lands of disbelievers except for the sake of medical treatment, or for trade, or to visit a relative with whom you have a family tie; there is no harm in that. Yes.
