Is it permissible for a woman to travel alone to visit her parents
(with her husband's permission) when the parents live beyond 48 miles
from her residence?
Answer:
In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,
The majority position is that it is not permitted for women to travel
alone beyond city limits for more than 48 miles, because of the
outward purport of many hadiths of the Beloved Messenger of Allah
(peace and blessings be upon him) that no woman who believes in Allah
and the Last Day should do so.
However, as the answers below detail, there is some leeway in this
according to established positions within Sunni scholarship, when
there is obvious need or recognized benefit that cannot be reasonably
fulfilled otherwise.
And Allah alone gives success.
