Assalamu alaykum, Dear Sheikh, My mother is living with my sister as it is the tradition in our community. My mother is not willing to give the inheritance share that belongs to me and is planning to give to my sister. I had been providing monthly expenses to my mother. Is it obligatory in Islam for me to give monthly expenses to my mother since she did not give my right and is living with my sister who is well off?. When my wife met with an accident, my mother did not lend any help to us although I have two kids and we were suffering. There were conflict between my wife and mother prior to the accident. Considering all this, please advise if it is obligatory to continue to provide monthly expenses for my mother.

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, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.
