The ruling on severing the family ties of a married daughter

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is it permissible for a daughter to sever her family ties if she gets married and her husband prevents her from visiting her relatives except once every fifteen days?

Answer:
No, the daughter does not sever ties, and there is no blame on her for it, because a married daughter is bound to her husband. She does not sever ties, but she can maintain ties with her parents as much as she is able, by phone, by sending greetings, and by being consistent with visiting. If her husband prevents her from visiting, she can call them on the phone. For example, she can send them greetings or a gift if it is from her own money, or whatever her husband allows. She should continue sending greetings and continue doing this.
