What is the religious ruling on a mother not visiting her relatives and her own mother due to her intense preoccupation with caring for her disabled son and her difficult health circumstances, and is there sin upon her for that?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If a mother does not visit her mother due to her health condition and her care for her disabled son, then she is excused. However, she can maintain ties with her mother through gifts and communication. And she should apologize to her mother, explain to her her health condition and her circumstances with her son, and ask her for forgiveness.
