The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about a woman who has a husband and wealth of her own, but her husband does not permit her to make the pilgrimage. He said, "She may not set out except with her husband's permission."
عن رسول الله ﷺ في امرأة لها زوجها، ولها مال ولا يأذن زوجها في الحج، قال: ليس لها أن تنطلق إلا بإذن زوجها.

Tabarani narrated it in Mujam al-Awsat (4259) and Mujam al-Saghir (582), and in Majma Bahrayn (1669), Daraqutni narrated it (2441), and Bayhaqi narrated it in Sunan al-Kubra (223/5) and in Marifah (501/7), all of them by way of Hassan bin Ibrahim, who said, "Ibrahim Sayigh narrated to us," from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, and he related it.Tabarani said, "No one narrated from Nafi except Ibrahim Sayigh, and no one narrated from Ibrahim except Hassan bin Ibrahim. Muhammad bin Abu Yaqub Kirmani transmitted it alone." Bayhaqi said in Marifah, "Hassan bin Ibrahim transmitted it alone."I say, Hassan bin Ibrahim is Kirmani, Abu Hisham Anazi, one of the narrators found in the Sahih collections, and his hadith is hasan, so his being the sole transmitter does not harm it.As for the question of a woman seeking her husband's permission for the obligatory Hajj, there is some detail to it. The basic principle regarding obligations and duties is that one should hasten to perform them, and the husband has no right to prevent his wife once Hajj becomes obligatory upon her. Rather, it is his duty to cooperate with her in fulfilling her obligations, such as prayer, fasting, Hajj, and the like.However, considerations of benefit may sometimes call for delaying the Hajj for a certain period due to particular circumstances, since Hajj is not like prayer and fasting, given how long it takes. So it is recommended for the woman to seek her husband's permission, unlike with prayer and fasting. If he forbids her, she may obey him, since opposing him could lead to conflict and discord, and Islam commands the mending of relations between people.But if he forbids her outright and absolutely, then he is not to be obeyed, since there is no obedience to a created being in disobedience to the Creator. Rather, she may ask him for divorce, and by forbidding her in this way, he risks being counted among those who turn people away from the path of Allah.The majority of scholars have held that a man has no right to prevent his wife from performing the obligatory Hajj once the conditions for its obligation are met in her case, except for those who held that it may be delayed, namely the Shafiis, who said that the husband has the right to prevent his wife from both the obligatory and the voluntary Hajj, because his right over his wife is immediate, whereas the Hajj may be delayed.This applies if she has not yet entered ihram. But if she has entered ihram, then a different ruling applies to her, which is set out in detail in the books of fiqh.Among these is the statement of Ataa, "If a woman enters ihram for Hajj and her husband then prevents her, she is in the same position as one who is prevented, a muhsar."
