What are the rights of the husband's mother and sisters over the wife, especially with their continuous interference in her life, and the husband's mother's claim of increased rights over her and the annulment of the wife's family's rights?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The rights of the husband's family consist of good treatment, righteousness, and kindness to the best of one's ability. It is not obligatory to seek the mother-in-law's approval for everything. The duty is to obey the husband and seek his permission, as long as he does not command disobedience. As for the family, they have the right to maintain ties, righteousness, kindness, and visitation. Their right comes after the husband's right.
