Is it permissible for an oppressed woman to supplicate against her oppressive grandmother and paternal aunts, and to rejoice at their deaths?
The injustice of the grandmother and paternal aunts is a grave evil, and Islamic law has forbidden injustice, especially injustice towards relatives. The grandmother is in the position of a mother, so she must be treated kindly even if she mistreats you. It is not permissible to supplicate against her or to rejoice at her death. Paternal aunts are also relatives with whom ties must be maintained. One must be patient with them and supplicate for their guidance, and involve good-hearted people to offer advice. For whoever maintains ties with their relatives despite their قطع, it is as if they silence them with an argument, and they will have a helper from Allah.
