Permission of the Wife from Her Husband
A married woman has a job and children to take care of, and her husband is living abroad. He demands that she seek his permission before any movement, and it is not enough for her to just inform him; she must wait for his permission for most of her actions, which are agreed upon in advance. However, if something new arises and she sends him a message to inform him, but he does not respond and she goes out, is this permissible? What are the conditions for the husband's permission in this case?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is not permissible for her to go out except with prior permission from her husband, except in cases of necessity such as visiting her parents or buying essential items for the house and similar matters. In cases where there is no necessity, she must seek his permission. And God knows best.
