I completely agree with this.
Where does it say in Islam that looking after your parents is strictly the son’s duty? That’s a cultural thing which needs to be scrapped fast imo. If it’s only the son’s duty to look after the parents, what about families who have no sons? Or families who have sons with no idea of responsibility? It’s just silly to say that just because a girl has ‘left’ her family she is not required to look after her parents. Heck, I have two brothers but Inshallah I’ll be there for my parents no matter what.
Allah chose the family set up within the guy’s family? I’m sorry but where does it say that in the Qur’an? Correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t say that a DIL is required to live with her in-laws anywhere.
Since when does living separately from your in laws equate to not having respect for them? ![]()
