Is it permissible for a woman to say that she loves her husband more than her father?

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Darul Iftaa Jordan
Is it permissible for a woman to say that she loves her husband more than her father?

Answer:
It is impermissible for her to say so since this would hurt her father deep down. Allah, The Almighty, says in this regard:” and that ye be kind to parents. ”(Al-Isra/23). Saying such a thing to her father isn`t an act of kindness since she should keep it to herself even if she felt that way.

This answer was collected from the official government Iftaa Department of Jordan.
