Mother asking the son to divorce his wife

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Is this true that when a mother asks the son to divorce his wife, he should divorce her? is the mum’s status higher than the wife’s status?

Bismillaah

A: If it is for a valid reason then it is better for him to listen to his mother.

Yes. However, the wife should not be ignored and treated with any type of inferiority in her presence or absence.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
