Why is the relationship with in-laws often the most stressful part of a marriage? Frequently, it is because cultural expectations clash with Islamic rights. If you feel caught between your spouse and your parents or theirs, or if you are a parent-in-law struggling to navigate this new chapter in your adult child’s life, this book is your guide to a more harmonious extended family life.
Afshan Khan tackles this silent but prevalent issue with incredible sensitivity. She introduces a framework for understanding space, privacy, and finances – the three areas where most rifts begin – thus establishing the healthy boundaries that Allah has already given us, so every family member feels respected.
More From The Author
Endorsements & Recognition
“Khan sensitively navigates the complex role of culture which dictates how things are done in some households. She argues for religion to become the overriding framework to reduce the clash of cultures which often give rise to a turbulent married life. I highly recommend this book for prospective couples, Imams, and marriage counsellors.”

Who We Are
One of the First Islamic Publishers in the United Kingdom
Connecting English-speaking Muslims to the heart of their faith with authentic, accessible books.
At a time when there were limited faith-based resources to learn and teach Islam to the Muslim community in English, Afsar & Jamal-un-Nisa Siddiqui founded one of the first Islamic publishing houses in the UK. Leaving behind professional careers, they paved the way for future generations to enjoy a wide range of Islamic literature. Almost fifty years later, we continue to provide the highest quality books worldwide and support literacy charities.
