What to do, I purchased fazail e Amal and muntakhab and suggested many times to do taleem and once we did taleem in her parents home with her parents. Daily I do taleem and take my wife and all my family members to sit in taleem. My wife listens to whatever her parents tell her whether it's wrong or right.
Answer
She must respect her husband. Disobeying the husband is a major wrong.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

What are a husband's rights over his wife?
“It is compulsory upon the wife to obey the husband. Hence, if the husband does not give her permission to travel for umrah with her parents and family, it will not be permissible for her to travel.”
