The answer

If the marital home and its contents are owned by the husband, then there is no objection to him allowing his mother to host relatives there. However, if the house or furniture is owned by the wife, the husband does not have the right to permit others to use it without her consent, because he is not allowed to benefit from his wife's possessions except with her consent. It is advised to seek understanding and cooperation, and not to let these matters become a cause of discord if there is no harm to the wife.
