I am a young unmarried woman living at my parents' house. My mother is the primary caregiver for my sick grandmother, so she has been living with her for the past year. As a result, I've been living alone with my father.
For lunch and dinner, we usually don't have a fixed routine. Sometimes I cook, sometimes we order takeout, and other times we buy something quick and make a salad or a simple meal.
I work full-time, and over the past month I haven't had much time to cook, so I mostly eat whatever is available at home. I pay for all of my own personal expenses except food.
Recently, my father and I had an argument. Since then, he has stopped getting dinner for me. He will buy takeout for himself, bring it home, and eat it while I am left with nothing.
I find this situation very hurtful and unfair. I was wondering whether, from an Islamic perspective, he is neglecting any religious obligation toward me as his unmarried daughter. What are my rights in this situation, and what would be the best way to handle it?
Argument context: The argument happened on Eid al-Adha. We were supposed to go home together, but he drove off without waiting for me. I called him, but he hung up on me. I tried calling several more times, but he didn't answer. I also left him multiple voice messages asking why he had done that, telling him how hurt I was, and explaining what had upset me.
He hasn't spoken a single word to me since then.
