The answer

The mother-in-law entering her son's wife's room without permission is a -prohibited error due to violating others' privacy. It is advised to be patient and pray for her, and to wisely come to an understanding with the husband to avoid discord. It is permissible to close the room door unless doing so would result in greater harm, in which case private items should be concealed. The mother-in-law should be a support for her son, especially with the wife's illness. Frequently seeking forgiveness and remembering Allah brings tranquility.
