Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The sister who sent this question says: I live on the upper floor with my husband's family, and when I go down to see his mother, I face some problems from her and his sisters. This affects my marital life with my husband. I have asked my husband to look for an apartment so we can move out from his mother's place. What is the Shaykh's opinion on this?
Answer:
Yes, this is your right if you are suffering harm from living with his family. You may request separate housing, and it is obligatory for him to provide you with housing. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh, and may He bless you and your knowledge, and benefit Islam and the Muslims through you with these successful answers based on the Book and the Sunnah. May Allah reward you with the best reward for us and for the Muslim community.
