What should a Muslim girl do if she is trapped by her family who prevent her from practicing her religion; should she travel or stay?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A girl must leave a place where her faith is subjected to temptation for a safe place. She is permitted to use stratagems or lie to achieve this, or to seek help from those who can assist her. She is not allowed to remain in this place unless she finds no way to escape. If she is unable, she must be patient, supplicate, and humble herself before Allah. And whoever knows of her situation and is able to help her, it is his duty to assist her.
