Must a wife obey her husband and mother-in-law by bathing with the belongings of a deceased person in order to conceive, and is this act permissible in Islam?
Supplication (Du'a) and seeking medical treatment are both permissible. It is recommended to supplicate frequently and ask Allah Almighty for righteous offspring, while also taking the necessary means and consulting specialized doctors. Whoever fears the evil eye (Ayn) or demonic possession (Mass) should resort to Shar'iyah, either by performing it on themselves or seeking assistance from a righteous reciter. It is not permissible to do what the wife's mother suggested, as it is closer to the actions of sorcerers and soothsayers, nor is it permissible to obey the husband in disobeying Allah. It is recommended to gently and kindly discuss the matter with the husband and his mother, seek help from scholars to convince them, and frequently supplicate for their guidance.
