Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
You also say in another question: My son's wife works as a teacher, and she does not respond to my advice regarding her clothing and her acts of worship. If I intervene in the affairs of my son and his wife, will I be in the wrong, knowing that I advise them for the sake of Allah ? And if they do not obey my orders, do I have the right to evict them from my house, or not? May Allah reward you with the best reward.

Answer:
You will be rewarded for advising them, and this is the obligatory duty of the believing man and woman: enjoining good and forbidding evil. If the wife is engaging in what Allah has forbidden, such as not covering herself properly or not caring about covering herself, or if she is lax in what Allah has made obligatory upon her, such as prayer or other things, then it is obligatory to forbid the evil. If she does not respond, or if her husband does not respond, then you must evict them to another house where they are independent, so that you are safe from the disgrace of their evil deeds and so that you are free from responsibility regarding their affairs.
So, the result is that it is obligatory for you to command them to do what is right and forbid them from doing what is wrong. If they respond, then praise be to Allah. Otherwise, evict them from your place so that you are safe from their consequences and the evil deeds they commit. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
