ANSWER:

You are not obliged to work outside the house or even take care of his mother. Providing for the house is the man’s responsibility, not the other way around. Be firm and adamant about staying at home and make him man up.

You must weigh the pros and cons of leaving him wisely and before you end up with children!

QUESTION: My husband doesn’t do any job and want me to work outside and do household chores and doesn’t even want kid because of the responsibility of it …meanwhile he is loving towards me but put responsibility of his mother on me also.. should I keep patience and continue my marriage and pray from Allah for better days or leave him right now as this is effecting me mentally all the time?
