Father in law scolding his daughter in law
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.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
