You must be gentle with your mother when advising her about the obligation of adhering to the full, modest Islamic veil () and abandoning unlawful mixing (ikhtilat), while still showing her dutifulness and obedience in matters that do not involve disobedience [to Allah]. Her money is lawful, and it is permissible to eat from it if her work is permissible and does not contradict Islamic law.
