Am I sinful if I buy my wife a car for her to go to her work (a girls' school), knowing that my parents will be upset by it?

Obeying parents is obligatory in matters that benefit them and do not harm the child. If the parents' displeasure regarding the purchase of a car for the wife is unfounded, then their obedience is not obligatory, and it is permissible to buy the car. If it is possible to avert their displeasure through a stratagem, such as giving the wife the money to buy the car herself, then this is permissible.
