Question

Thanku brother..Jazakallah. After marriage, my husband wont support my parents b'cuz he'll be busy supporting his parents.

Answer

The place of woman is at home and take care of her children and offsprings as Allah Ta'ala states, 'Stay in your houses and do not display yourselves like that of the times of ignorance .' (Ahzaab Verse 33)

But if a woman needs to work, she must conform to the Shari'ah rules of Hijaab.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
