Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Give me a ruling, may Allah grant you success, regarding my wife, for she enjoining good and forbidding evil with all harshness. She addresses my mother and my sisters with the harshest words and accuses them of disbelief and open sinfulness, even though my mother has the Qur'an memorized and is upright. He says: What is your advice for my wife who claims that she is enjoining good in this manner?

Answer:
She needs someone to enjoin good upon her. She needs someone to command her and to advise her against enjoining good in this manner. This advice is not in this manner. So, I advise her and explain to her that she is sinful in this action. It is a sin, and she is not being rewarded. Yes.
