The Ruling on a Woman Performing Hajj Without Her Husband's Consent

The first message in this episode, Your Eminence, concerns a woman who performed Hajj without her husband's consent. The sender is our sister, Salha Maghrib Bukht, from Yanbu al-Bahr. She says: I seek your guidance in the following: I asked my husband to perform the obligatory Hajj with me, but there was a misunderstanding between us, and I did not go with him. A year later, I performed the obligatory Hajj and 'Umrah with my brothers without his consent. It is said that if the husband is angry with her, the angels do not approve except with the husband's approval. Please inform me whether my Hajj is valid without his consent or not. Thank you.
Answer: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon the Messenger of Allah, upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance.
Answer: To proceed: The obligatory Hajj does not require the husband's consent. However, if his consent is easy to obtain, that is better and more pleasant; otherwise, it is not a condition. Your Hajj is valid, praise be to Allah. This is a duty incumbent upon you and others who are accountable. Whoever is able to perform Hajj must perform it. If a wife's husband does not permit her to perform the obligatory Hajj, his right is waived, and she must perform Hajj. Similarly, she must fast Ramadan even if he is not pleased. This applies only to voluntary acts; she may not perform voluntary Hajj or voluntary fasting, which are considered voluntary, without his permission. As for the obligatory Hajj, she may perform it without his permission if he does not allow it; because Allah has made the obligatory Hajj mandatory for Muslims in His saying, the Exalted: [Al-Imran: 97] May Allah grant everyone success and guidance. Yes.
The presenter: O Allah, amen. May Allah reward you with good. Your Eminence, our sister did not mention the pleasure of Allah, the Exalted, but rather mentioned the pleasure of the angels. Perhaps there is something to correct here, Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz?
The Shaykh: This came in a hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): And in the other wording: It is obligatory for a woman to obey her husband in what is good if he calls her to his bed, and she should not anger him except for a valid reason. If she angers him and he spends the night angry with her, there is danger for her from the anger of Allah and the anger of the angels. A woman should beware of this and strive to obey her husband and seek his pleasure in what is good, not in sins, unless there is a valid reason, such as being ill with an illness that prevents her from fulfilling his need, in which case she is excused. Or if he has been negligent in her rights and has not fulfilled his duty toward her, she has the right to demand her rights. If he fulfills her rights, she must obey and listen in fulfilling his rights.
'Umrah is like Hajj, as mentioned earlier; 'Umrah is like Hajj because it is obligatory according to the correct opinion. If he does not allow her to perform 'Umrah, she may perform 'Umrah without his permission. It is once in a lifetime, like Hajj. Hajj is once in a lifetime, and 'Umrah is once in a lifetime; the rest is voluntary. Yes.
