The answer

It is permissible for a father to travel with his daughter to his country if the journey and the country are safe, and he does not intend to harm the mother. There is a disagreement among scholars regarding the mother's right to custody in such a case. Issues presented to courts are not resolved by fatwas; rather, they are referred to the court, and the judge's ruling resolves the dispute, such that the mufti's opinion is superseded by the judge's decree.
