A Woman's Work Without Her Husband's Permission

Question
What is the ruling on a woman going to work without her husband's permission? Is it permissible?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is not permissible for a woman to leave the house for work or otherwise without her husband's permission unless there is a necessity. If she goes out, she commits a sin and is considered disobedient, and God knows best.
