Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She says she is unable to obey her mother in every matter; is she sinful given the circumstances described?

Answer:
She is not sinful for what she is unable to do, because Allah the Exalted said:
Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacityلَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
So if she obeys her mother in what she is able to do, she has fulfilled the obligation upon her, and she is not asked about what she is unable to do.
