Requesting one's husband for separate living quarters
Question
I have been living with my in laws over a year now and been having some problems with my in laws which I feel is affecting me and my husbands relationship. My mother in law does not like it when I go out with my mom or if I visit my aunts. I feel that she is controlling me. I asked my husband if we can move and he said no but I feel that if I stay any longer, problems will only get bigger.
Answer
Kindly request your husband that he should arrange to stay separately to avoid further problems.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
