Is money or family more important when deciding whether to remain abroad?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
Traveling with the husband to a foreign land and staying with him is a religious obligation, as it is one of the main purposes of marriage, and it is what the husband and daughter need. The wife can visit her family during holidays, and work in the foreign country if a suitable job is available. The interest of family unity is more important than staying in the homeland or near family or working. Obeying the husband and traveling with him strengthens the relationship and helps in making appropriate decisions.
