We advise the questioner to be keen on working in her city, because daily travel is not befitting for women unless accompanied by a محرم (unmarriageable kin), for fear of her being exposed to danger. She must be cautious and adhere to the guidelines when dealing with men. It is better for the spouses to cooperate; the man earns outside the home and the wife raises the children within it.
