Request:
Assalamu’alaikum,
Dear respected and beloved shaykhs, my family members are thinking of traveling to Bangladesh, but are in a dilemma as to whether they should or not.
Do they have permission?
Jazakallahu’khair and I humbly thank you for taking up your blessed time.
Response:
Alaykum as-Salam,
Pursuit of rizq, keeping family ties, seeking knowledge, and permitted entertainment or relaxation are all valid reasons that make travel blessed; however, Mawlana Shaykh Nazim in our particular times advises to stay home unless there is necessity to travel so, if in doubt, abstain.
