If the wife's family refuses to let her travel with her husband
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 6159 )
Q: I am married, and my wife and my family are in the southern region. My work did not allow me to visit them until after a long period. Is there any sin on me for that? Because I want to live with her at my place of work, but her family prevents that. What is the solution in the Shari'ah, and on whom does the sin fall? Since there is a custom among us where, when one of us gets married, he writes a deed of residence next to the bride's family, this is a widespread custom in the south, especially in al-Qunfudhah
A: If the situation is as you described regarding your condition, your wife, and your in-laws, then there is no sin on you. Strive with your in-laws to explain your circumstances and your necessity for your wife to be with you at your place of work, and reassure them that you will protect her and honor her, hoping that they will allow her to travel with you. May Allah make your affairs easy.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
