The answer

Women have been commanded to obey their husbands and safeguard their rights. This includes not allowing anyone into the house without the husband's permission, whether that person is a non-mahram man, a woman, or one of the wife's mahram relatives. This is because the fundamental principle is that it is forbidden to enter a person's home without their permission. This ruling does not change if the house is not owned by the husband; rather, it applies because it is his dwelling, and it relates to the man's qawamah (guardianship/headship) over his home and family.
