The answer

Differences between a wife and her husband's mother are common, and the couple must exercise wisdom to deny Satan any opportunity. One means of fostering affection is giving gifts, for a gift removes ill feelings from the heart.

Your striking your mother is a reprehensible act and an act of disobedience (ʿuqūq) that necessitates repentance, unless you were unconscious at the time. You have done well by asking for forgiveness. Strive to earn her satisfaction through supplication and by seeking help from those close to her. We hope that Allah will not answer her prayer against you as long as you are repentant.
