Question:
Respect to you & your job what you are doing its thankful to us I have gone through maximum numbers of Fatwa's in your website after that I am writing this to solve my solution, I am a married & happy family but there is some inhabits in my family. My parents they dislike my wife, listening from others that she is from small family. I told to my father before my marriage that I will not take any dowry in kind of money or anything so after my marriage my mother use to tell to my wife that you are from small family & didn’t bring anything with you even though she use to listen for the sake of me. I am working abroad. One day my father call me & told me kindly send money so we will arrange air tickets for your wife & children's (having three kids) than he close his mobile. I call to my wife & told her leave the now & go to your sister's house, meanwhile I arrange some money & send to my wife to buy tickets for her. Now they are with me. When she came here she told me that my father told her some bad words but I refuse to listen her words, this all was happened A year and half, but now my wife is telling me she will go back to my home but after my father should call her back because my father also told her to leave my house. I love my parents very much as well as my wife. I don’t want to lose them. My wife's parents died two years before. Tell me the solution. Pls make as private.
Answer:
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad 
is His slave and Messenger.
It is good that the relationship between you and your wife is as best as it can be and that you are both happy. Also, it is good that you love your parents. You should endeavor to be kind and dutiful to them and not be neglectful about their rights even though they might be neglectful towards you or that they mistreat your wife; being kind and dutiful to them is an obligation in all cases.
Hence, you should fulfill the rights of your parents on one hand, and the rights of your wife on the other hand. For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa 82254 and 88695.
However, if you can let your wife reside with you, then this might be better and it will solve the problem once and for all. In case she has to go back to your country, then she has the right to a separate accommodation where she may be safe from any harm. She is not obliged to reside with your parents unless she agrees. If she agrees, then she should not condition that your father contacts her. Instead, you may contact him and inform him that she will return home, and by doing so, you would avoid embarrassing both of them. For more benefit on the right of the wife to a separate accommodation, please refer to Fatwa 84608.
Finally, it should be noted that if this house is yours, then your father has no right to drive your wife out of it or prevent her from entering it.
Allaah Knows best.
