Judge Derrick Watson's ruling means President Trump will be barred from enforcing the ban on six mostly Muslim nations while it is contested in court.
According to reports, in a lawsuit, the US state says the ban would harm tourism and the ability to recruit foreign students and workers.
President Trump says his revised travel ban seeks to prevent terrorists from entering the United States.
Judge Watson made the ruling late on Wednesday after hearing arguments from attorneys for the state of Hawaii and the US Department of Justice.
