Is it obligatory for a son to obey his mother in divorcing his wife, or would he be undutiful if he did not?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a mother orders her son to divorce his wife, is it obligatory for him to divorce her? If he does not, is he undutiful?

Answer:
No. If his father or mother orders him to divorce his wife without a legitimate religious reason, he is not required to do so. However, if there is a legitimate religious reason, such as her negligence in her religion or her harming one of her parents, he must obey them in that. But if there is no reason and it is merely a psychological matter, it is not permissible, and he is not required to divorce her. Yes.
