The Dispute Between the Wife and the Mother-in-Law and the Wife’s Request for a Separate House
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. We have received this question. The questioner says: Shaykh, how should a man deal with the family dispute that arises between his wife and his mother? And if the wife requests a house separate from her mother-in-law, should he fulfill her request?
Answer:
Yes. If a misunderstanding arises between his mother and his wife, he should reconcile them as much as he can until this is resolved. If that is not possible and the misunderstanding remains between his mother and his wife, he should house his wife in another house where she is far from her mother-in-law so that no misunderstanding occurs. And yes, the wife has the right to housing, and housing is among her rights over her husband, so he should house her in a house befitting her. Yes.
