Answer
The best way to create love between the wife and your mother is to encourage one another to give gifts. Encourage them not to go by the book of rights. Rather go by the book of love, Khidmat. Explain, encourage your wife to treat your mother as her mother, overlook her shortcomings.
Similarly, with Hikmat and wisdom, convince your mother that your wife loves her, cares for her and after all she is her daughter also. May Allah Ta'ala grant them love, compassion and happiness, Aameen.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
