Are parents held accountable for the psychological complexes they might cause their children?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The inquirer is advised to marry when she finds a suitable spouse of good character and religiosity. Her mother or guardian does not have the right to prevent her from marrying, and if they do, she can refer her case to the judges. She must honor her mother and treat her kindly, no matter how badly she behaves, and she should not reciprocate ill-treatment. The cause of her problem might be her mother's favoritism towards her son, and the mother should stop discriminating between her children. Our advice to the girl is to be patient, supplicate frequently, and treat her parents well.
