Question:
This questioner says that a person asked a woman, and she asked her son to divorce his wife because of a disagreement between them. Is it permissible for him to yield to this request and divorce his wife?

Answer:
He does not divorce his wife, even if his father or mother asks him to, as long as the wife has not erred, is upright in her religion and character, and has not done anything that is a sin or a violation of the Shari'ah. He does not divorce her to comply with his parents' wish, because that would be an injustice to her.
