Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a woman wants to perform Hajj, but her husband is preventing her. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
If it is the obligatory Hajj, he has no right to prevent her. But if it is the voluntary Hajj, he has the right to prevent her; she does not go out except with his permission. As for the obligatory Hajj, he has no right to prevent her, just as he does not prevent her from prayer or from fasting. It is not permissible for him to prevent her from Hajj, because this is one of the pillars of Islam, and abandoning it is a sin. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Mishkat al-Masabih 3696, obedience is only in what is good. Yes.
