What is the solution for a marital life filled with disputes and tension in a foreign land? Is it better to return to the homeland or to remain with the husband despite the distress?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A wife must obey her husband by traveling with him wherever he wishes, even if she dislikes it, provided the route and the destination are safe, and she is not cut off from her family. The wife is advised to be patient and seek Allah's help in pursuing lawful sustenance. The husband is advised to return if there is no need to remain in those lands.
