A:
You should treat your mother kindly, try to please her, advise her softly and properly so she may resume eating lawful food that she prohibited herself to eat;
because prohibiting what Allah has made lawful is impermissible according to the Saying of Allah (Exalted be He),
O you who believe! Make not unlawful the Tayyibât (all that is good as regards foods, things, deeds, beliefs, persons) which Allâh has made lawful to you, and transgress not. Verily, Allâh does not like the transgressors.
And eat of the things which Allâh has provided for you, lawful and good, and fear Allâh in Whom you believe.
If she eats from the food which she prohibited for herself, she has to make a Kaffarah (Expiation) for a broken oath. (Part No. 25; Page No. 181) That is, she has to feed ten needy people, clothe them, or set free a Muslim slave. If she is unable to do so, she will have to fast for three days. You have to advise her not to swear by anyone other than Allah according to the Hadith authentically reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him) that he said,
Whoever has to take an oath should swear by Allah or remain silent (i.e. He should not swear by anyone other than Allah.)
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
