Question
What is the ruling on the wife leaving the house without the husband's permission? What is the ruling on the wife receiving guests from her family or others without the husband's permission? What is the ruling on the wife visiting some relatives and friends who are in conflict with the husband?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: Among the rights of the husband is that the wife should not leave his house except with his permission, except in certain cases. It is also the right of the husband that she receives her family in the marital home without the husband's permission, and the wife is not allowed to visit anyone from her friends without the husband's consent. As for relatives like brothers and sisters, it is permissible for her to visit them as is commonly accepted, without the husband's consent, such as once a year. However, the wife should handle all of the above with wisdom, even if she knows it is her right. And God knows best.
