The answer

It is permissible to demand rights from one's mother, while still maintaining proper etiquette and filial piety towards her. Her mistake does not justify your mistake in dealing with her. Allah will not neglect your right, neither in this world nor in the Hereafter. Patience, forgiveness, and benevolence are recommended, as is resorting to Allah Almighty through supplication, for the keys to relief are in His hand, and He has promised to answer those who call upon Him. Dreams cannot be interpreted due to lack of specialization; they are merely for solace and do not carry any legal ruling.
