Dutifulness to the mother and her mistreatment of the wife
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: I am the youngest of my brothers, and I was close to my mother, but after my marriage, the situation turned completely upside down.
The Shaykh:
I, he says, I.
The questioner:
He says: May Allah reward you. I am the youngest of my brothers, and I was close to my mother, but after my marriage, the situation turned completely upside down, and my wife’s good deeds became bad deeds in my mother’s eyes, even though my mother chose this wife. And whenever my wife tries to get close to my mother, she finds no benefit. And whenever she tries to be dutiful to her and please her, she is not pleased. So what is the way out?
The Shaykh:
You must do what you can,[Al-Baqarah 2:286], and as long as the wife has not mistreated your mother, and she is a righteous woman and has not done anything wrong to your mother, then you owe nothing in keeping her. However, dutifulness to your mother and kindness to your mother must not be cut off, and try to reconcile between them as much as you can. Yes.
