What should I do about my parents, who are suffering from ongoing marital problems, especially since my mother taunts me about not being married and treats me poorly, and how should I deal with constant family conflicts and my parents' misunderstanding?
This conflict between parents and the resulting harm to children is a great tribulation. The questioner has done well in their patience and supplication for guidance. We emphasize continuing to advise the parents in the best possible manner, and seeking help from those whose words they accept, as this is an act of filial piety and kindness. It is also necessary to beware of mistreating either of them, as that is a form of disobedience. It can be clarified to the mother that delayed marriage is divine decree and destiny, and that a person should look to those below them in worldly matters. There is no harm in seeking a righteous husband.
