Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: I have a husband, and I traveled to perform Hajj without his consent. He says that he will not permit me and does not agree. I am a woman who loves Hajj. What is obligatory: obeying the husband or performing Hajj?

Answer: If Hajj is an obligatory duty, then it is obligatory to carry out the command of Allah, and you must perform the obligatory Hajj if you are able, even if your husband does not consent.
As for the voluntary Hajj, no, you do not perform Hajj except with his permission, you do not travel except with his permission, and you do not leave the house except with his permission. As for the obligatory Hajj, no,
Obedience is in matters which are good and universally recognized.إنما الطاعة في المعروف
Sunan Abi Dawud 2625Sahih (Al-Albani)
A creature is not to be obeyed when it involves disobedience to the "Creator.”لا طاعة لمخلوق في معصية الخالق
Mishkat al-Masabih 3696
, if you are able to perform Hajj, then perform it.
