The answer

If you did not stipulate in the marriage contract with your husband that you would not leave your country, then it is obligatory for you to obey him in moving to the country he desires, as long as the travel is safe. Obedience to the husband in this case takes precedence over obedience to parents, but you must still honor your parents and be kind to them. It is important to be cautious about residing in the lands of the disbelievers due to the dangers it poses to religion and morals.
