Question

Is it permissible to go on vacation with one’s wife/family to Non-Muslim countries as long as one still fulfil the requirements of being a Muslim
(i.e., praying, fasting, etc.)

Answer

On account of the abundant fithnah and overwhelming influence of sin, it is not advisable for Muslims to travel to to non-Muslims countries without a valid need.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
