What should a married young man working in Saudi Arabia do when he faces problems between his wife and his parents due to her serving them, and his wife demands either a separate residence or divorce, which might anger his parents?

It is the wife's right to demand a separate dwelling, and she is not obliged to serve her husband's family except as a voluntary act of kindness. We advise the husband to strive for reconciliation between his wife and his parents. If the wife agrees to remain with them and maintain a good relationship, then that is excellent. If she refuses, then he must provide a separate dwelling for her. A husband's independent housing is not considered an act of disobedience to parents, but he must still seek to please them and be dutiful towards them.
