The answer

Resorting to Allah through supplication, and being patient with your mother while increasing your supplications. Involve righteous people whose words you hope she will accept. Discuss with your mother gently the issue of saving money and searching for ways to achieve that, such as work that does not require leaving the house. If this is not feasible and you need to work, and you might be harmed if you do not take the job, then there is no blame upon you for taking the job, while striving to please your mother, for obedience to parents is not obligatory in matters that harm the child. We advise trying to reach an understanding with your siblings gently and seeking help from good people to avoid discord.
