Assalamu alaikum Plz could you tell me what a man should call his daughter-in-law,and likewise what she should call her father-in law? Jazakallah


There are no set rules for what a father-in-law should call his son's wife or vice versa. Although their is no set verdict in this matter names which are considered inappropriate islamically, socially or culturally should be avoided as showing respect to each other is a part of Islam. E.g. in Asian cultures it is considered a taboo to address one?s in-laws by their name and as such should not be done. And Allah knows best.
