He also asks: Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible for a husband to prevent his wife from attending wedding celebrations if they are for her relatives, out of fear of the issue of taking photos with a mobile phone and publishing those photos on the internet?
Answer:
As we mentioned, first, she is not permitted to leave his house except with his permission. Second, if there are wrongdoings in the gatherings, it is not permissible for her to go, even if he gives permission. It is not permissible for her to go, and it is not permissible for him to give her permission, because this is cooperation in sin and aggression.
