Husband Not Happy with Cooking

Correspondence of Hazrat Moulana Yunus Patel Saheb (rahimahullah) 

Letter:

Asalaam Mu Alaikum Maulana

I am married for several years. Shukr alhamdullilah I love my husband and he loves me and we have a good relationship. However, we have a problem commonly found in other marriages which has become serious: my husband is not happy with my cooking. I try very hard to make the kind of food he likes by looking for new recipes, asking my mother-in-law etc but he is always unhappy. When he doesn't like it, he gets very upset and angry and sometimes he has come close to giving me one 'talaaq' - astagfirrullah. I don't know what to do, as I love him and try so hard but he is rarely happy. He is a very fussy man and has high expectations which I can't seem to meet, no matter how hard I have tried. When I got married I didn't know how to cook, so I tried very quickly to learn, am learning everyday, but I am still unable to please him. Please can you give me some guidance and make dua for my marriage and for myself.

JazakAllah

Assalmualaikum 

Mufti, I am a divorced with a 10yr old daughter, I work full time and I have been coming home late recently due to work overload. My family is on the same property and suddenly my 10yr old daughter won’t even look at me, they came into the house took all her clothes and say I'm not a good mother. I am in a dilemma as today I don't have anyone to turn to, she says she has no food to eat, etc. Pls advise mufti as I feel like I am going mad, this is the same child that won't allow me to remarry, she starts screaming and shouting at me. I do my best to provide for her.
