If the wife is harmed by living with her mother, there is no sin upon her in living in her separate apartment, provided the dwelling is safe and private, and that she fulfills her mother's rights of righteousness, kindness, serving her, and financially assisting her if she needs it. The Permanent Committee has issued a fatwa permitting a son to live independently from his parents to achieve comfort and stability, while fulfilling their rights and maintaining kinship ties.
