Daughters taking care of their parents after marriage
Question
Do daughters have any obligation in taking care of their parents physically and or financially after they get married and start staying with their husbands? Particularly in the case if the son is poor and can hardly manage and if the daughters are financially well off and living an extravagant lifestyle.
Answer
If they are well to do then they should take care of their parents as well according to their means.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
