The ruling on a man being away from his wife for a long period
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner from the Arab Republic of Egypt -Al-Mansurah- residing in Al-Qassim -Buraydah- Abu Ahmad says: Your Eminence! Before my travel to the Kingdom, I agreed with my wife that I would spend one year outside the country, and that was to pay off the debts I am being demanded to settle. If my period of travel extends beyond the agreed year due to my financial circumstances, will I bear any sin on her account? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
Answer:
You owe nothing -if Allah wills- if you are compelled to extend your stay, there is no blame on you for that. However, if it is feasible for you to bring her to your location, to invite her to your location, and to transfer her to your location, that would be more cautious and better. If that is not feasible, then there is no blame on you. Yes.
