Husband preventing wife from visiting her mother
Q: I miss my mother alot. My husband, due to his issues with extended family, is living in the same house and does not take me to visit my mother. He does not allow me to stay with her. He is keeping me away from my mother. I don't feel loved here and I am trying to build relations here but my mother is also very sickly and she misses me as well.
I know that I have to obey my husband but it gets very tough as he goes to his mother house whenever he wants and sometimes I'm alone and get depressed. He visits his parents for about 3 days in a week. He does allow my mum to come over but she is not very comfortable. Please advise me.
A: It is not permissible for him to stop you. We subject our emotions and feelings to laws of Allah Ta`ala and we do not subject His laws to our emotions.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
