So as per Islamic teachings a wife is to give utmost obedience to her husband. While a husband has been asked to look after the wife and be as caring and loving as possible.

In an ideal scenario that is what helps a relationship a lot. But given the desi mindset , where mothers and sisters of men start using them to control the bhabi / DIL , how much of obedience would you give to the husband, to manage the situation?

I don’t know if there’s an answer to this.

To a certain extent it has to do with faith…how much faith do you have in your spouse? I am not married so cannot say for certain but what I learned from my past experience is that MIL and SIL feel extremely threatened by the woman in their son/brother’s life. They have had his attention and care for so long it seems like they might lose it to someone else. In case, that never happened as at that point I was oblivious.

He feels obligated to his family because he’s married now and needs to compensate for some odd reason - guilt makes a man do things he’d not normally do.

How much do you obey or listen is hard to say…very hard.
