Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: My mother harms my wife, and I am performing 'Umrah. I force my wife to always be with my mother. Do I have the right to force my wife to do this?

Answer:
No, you do not force her. Rather, you ask her to do this and encourage her to help you in being dutiful to your mother, and she will receive reward for this. You do not force her.
