Is it permissible for me to travel to seek provision and the costs of marriage, given that I have monotheistic brothers in my country, and knowing that my distance from them affects my performance at work and makes me wonder about the extent of its contradiction with His Almighty's saying: "And keep yourself patient with those who call upon their Lord morning and evening, seeking His countenance. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring the adornment of the worldly life. And do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who pursues his own desire, and whose affair has ever been in neglect"?
There is no objection to traveling in search of sustenance, even if the parents dislike it, as long as it does not cause them harm, because such journeys are generally safe. The lands of the Two Holy Mosques are the best lands, and worship there is superior. We do not believe that by this journey you have prioritized what should not be prioritized, and you must not cut off ties with your siblings.
