What is the right path for Shaikh Rashid Ali to take when his wife refuses to live with his parents?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I Shaikh Rashid Ali working in Govt. PSU company, got married 10 years back. My parents liked my wife (arrange marriage). I had done my best to all (my parents, brothers, sisters, my wife, and two sons) as per my ability and respect, but from the beginning of my marriage some quarrel arise between my mother and my wife but from good teaching from my parents I neglected these and believed Allah (SWT) will keep all right. But now my wife is not willing to live with my mother and so me, I had decided that I will not leave my parents today or in future. I do not want to lose my jannah by loosing or hurting my parents. Please show the right path.

According to Shariah, it is not good to take initiative of talaq, while disobeying parents is haram. You should find out some solution for the same. And in the above mentioned case, if you arrange for your wife separate accommodation and keep on serving your parents then it is hoped that the matter will be settled.
