Question

My father scolds my wife for house issues. I told my father not to scold her because I am her husband and she is not his daughter. What should I do and what does Islam say regarding this issue? Is my father allowed to do that or not?

Answer

It is wrong of him to shout at her.

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.
