Responsibility of a girl towards her mother in-law
Question
Help me understand the role & responsibility for a girl towards her mother in-law. Is there any Hadith for the same? Many people nowadays challenge that there is not a single responsibility prescribed for a girl towards her mother in-law.
Answer
She should treat her with respect and honour and be of service to her as she would expect and wish her brother's wife to do for her mother.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
