What is the ruling regarding a wife who goes to the hairdresser under the pretext of adorning herself, despite her husband's prohibition?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The wife sinned by disobeying her husband and leaving without his permission. It is not permissible for a woman to leave her husband's house except with his permission, unless she fears harm by staying. What the wife used as an excuse is not a legitimate justification. It is obligatory for her to repent to Allah Almighty by regretting her action and resolving not to repeat it.
