What are the rights of the father and the family who provided care, and is financial support obligatory for them, and is the wife of the paternal uncle who raised the questioner considered a Mahram?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Maintaining communication with her father is obligatory, and showing him great devotion is especially important as he ages. This does not contradict her kindness towards her uncle. Furthermore, the uncle's wife is not a mahram unless she breastfed her five full, satisfying times.
