Ruling on traveling to Western countries for the purpose of tourism?

Question:
What is the ruling on traveling to Western and disbelieving countries to spend the summer vacation and for tourism?

Answer:
Answer: No, this is forbidden. It is not permissible to travel to the lands of the West except for a need that cannot be met except by traveling, such as medical treatment, such as learning a craft, such as trade involving contracts with factories or companies, such as traveling to call people to Allah. This is permissible. As for one who travels purely for tourism and recreation, this is forbidden and not permissible.
