If obedience to the husband conflicts with obedience to the father, which takes precedence?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: If obedience to the husband conflicts with obedience to the father, which takes precedence?

Answer:
One looks at the reality. If it involves disobedience, there is no obedience to any created being in disobedience to the Creator, neither to a husband nor to a father. However, if the obedience is in a matter that is not disobedience, obedience to the father takes precedence, because obedience to the father comes after obedience to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He)
Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do goodوَاعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا
[An-Nisa 4:36]
But the woman should strive to reconcile her husband and her father, seeking to harmonize things as much as she is able, attempting to bring about reconciliation and repair. Yes.
