He told his wife to make food for him during the day in Ramadan!

There is no doubt that breaking the fast in Ramadan with no
legitimate excuse is a major sin and grave evil. If it is done because of
an excuse such as travelling — which means a journey of approximately 70
or 80 km, which is the distance that could be covered in one night on
mounts and on foot, which is what is called travelling — there is nothing
wrong with breaking the fast in this case. But if one is at home or on the
outskirts of the city, that is not called travelling and breaking the fast
in this case is a major sin. The one who helps the person to break his
fast shares with him in the sin, because Allah, may He be glorified, says
(interpretation of the meaning):

“Help you one another in Al‑Birr and At‑Taqwa (virtue,
righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and
transgression”

[al-Maa’idah 5:2].

The one who helps a person who breaks the fast in Ramadan
without an excuse, by offering him food or coffee or tea or any other food
or drink is a sinner who is a partner in sin with the one who breaks the
fast, but his fast is still valid and is not invalidated by his helping that
person. But he is a sinner and he has to repent to Allah. 

As you forced your daughter or your son’s wife to make the
food, you have to repent to Allah. You did wrong by telling her to make food
for him. She did right by not obeying him, because there is no obedience to
a created being if it involves disobedience towards the Creator. The Prophet
(blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Obedience is only in that
which is right and proper.” If her husband ordered her to bring him food
during the day in Ramadan, without any excuse that would make it permissible
for him to break the fast, such as sickness or travelling, she has no right
to help him to do that which Allah has forbidden, even if he gets angry or
divorces her, because obedience to Allah takes precedence over obedience to
one’s husband or father or ruler, because the Messenger (blessings and peace
of Allah be upon him) said: “Obedience is only in that which is right and
proper”; he also said: “There is no obedience to any created being if it
involves disobedience towards Allah.” 

This man is not regarded as a traveller because he stayed
with them for a week and it seems that he had decided to stay for more than
four days. This means that he was obliged to fast according to the correct
scholarly view, which is the view of the majority of scholars. As they had
decided to stay for more than four days with their in-laws, they should have
fasted with them. If the stay is four days or less, they are not obliged to
fast because they are travellers, but if they do fast, there is nothing
wrong with that. But as they intended to stay with them for more than four
days, what they should have done in this case is fast, so as to avoid an
area of scholarly disagreement and so as to follow the view of the majority,
because the basic principle is that one should fast in Ramadan, and there is
some doubt as to whether it was permissible to break the fast. End quote.
