Is it permissible for the husband to treat his wife in kind and not visit her mother, because his wife does not visit his mother, knowing that his mother is pleased with him?

The questioner is known for his good ties with his mother and for earning her pleasure, which is fulfilling the religious duty of maintaining kinship ties and showing kindness to parents. As for the wife severing ties with the questioner's mother, this is blameworthy in Islamic law and contrary to affection and connection among Muslims. The questioner should not respond to his wife's error with a similar error.

The advice is to be wise in handling the matter, as problems between a wife and her husband's mother are common. The questioner should act as a peacemaker. Islamic law has permitted lying to reconcile disputes, such as conveying kind words from one party to the other, hoping that Allah will bring them together.
