Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This woman says that her husband is a quick-tempered man. She says that when he gets angry, he beats me. In this situation, is it permissible for me to leave the house without his permission and go to my neighbor's house to avoid his anger?
Answer:
You do not leave except with his permission. If your leaving angers him, do not leave until he is pleased. However, you must be gentle with him, meaning you should be kind to him, until he gives permission. Leaving is not obligatory. Yes.
