Are a sister's obedience to her brothers, fulfilling their commands, and doing household chores obligatory upon her?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A daughter's obedience to her parents is obligatory while she is in their home, and it includes general household service and fulfilling household needs such as cooking and cleaning, as well as obeying their specific commands that benefit them and do not harm her. As for fulfilling the private needs of her brothers, this is not obligatory for her unless her mother commands it, and it falls under righteousness and good deeds. However, she should not be burdened with what is difficult for her. Obedience is to be within what is good and reasonable.
