It Is Not Wajib For The Wife To Serve The Mother-In-Law

Many men consider it a great fortune that they keep their wives subservient and controlled by their mothers and thourgh this they cause great injustices and wrongs to their wives. Hence, understand this very well, that it is not duty of the wife to serve the mother-in-law. If you consider it good fornute, then you yourself should serve the mother or acquire a servant to do the work.

It is my opinion that it is not a duty upon wife to cook food. For this deduction Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi used the following verse as substantiation :

"AND OF HIS SIGNS IS THIS THAT HE HAD CREATED FOR YOU MATES
THAT YOU MAY FIND PEACE AND TRANQUILITY IN THEM"

The deduction is this that woman has been created that your heart should find tranquility in her.Hence women are there for our delight and happiness and not for the purpose of cooking food.
