The answer

One must treat people with kindness, and this is especially emphasized in the case of relatives, particularly the husband's mother, due to the pain she endured in raising him. Therefore, the wife must be loyal to her. There is fear for the son and his wife from the mother's supplication against them, as it is the supplication of one who has been wronged, while also advising the mother to abandon it due to the potential harm it may cause. The son is enjoined to fear Allah and uphold the right of his mother, as her right takes precedence over everyone else's.
