I'm having a few problems with my mum, I know respect for parents is extremely important,

but basically my mum doesn't wear modest clothing or hijaab, and she has this thinking of following the pakistani culture rather than the right modest clothing, I hate to say this but shes dresssing like shes some kind of model, also if you're pakistani you'll know that clothing is becoming more revealing and tight in pakistan.

So this is becoming a real problem for me, because i've tried loads of times to change the way she dresses, and the fact that my parents are divorced and my mum is single makes it much worse, we also live in an area which is full of practising muslims who even wear the face veil!, my mum also teaches at a local madressa and at an islamic school! in day to day situations like going to the mosque I just know that people are giving her looks, All this is extremely embarrasing as i'm like the total opposite of her.

Another problem is riba or interest, we have an islamic bank just down the road , but my mum continues to 'invest' money in accounts to gain interest from them, our house mortgage is interest only!, my mum uses credit cards, and even keeps my money in an interest account.
I know that there isn't any blessings from Allah if we use interest money and we are not allowed to give zakaat with that money

But what I want to know is that out of respect do I have to continue do what my mum tells me, or for instance can I refuse to go out with her because of the way she dresses, or refuse to have a bank account where i'm taking interest

This is getting really fustrating and I don't want to disrespect her:grumbling so please help!
 
Bro when You say revealing clothes what do you mean? Revealing as in short tight or revealin as in no sleeves, low cut neck etc? Or BOTH :thumbs_do

Have you spoken to your mum about this and if so, what was her reaction?
 
just show her evidences from the Quraan & hadiths
and also do it in a nice way

like say, i care for you, i want to be with you in jannah . . . all the nice things and inshallah it will get her listening

and also remember she is your mummy, so always be respectful, try not to hurt her feelins, and also remember Allah (swt) guides whom he wills!!
