Question:
A sister says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, I am a sick mother and my son has gone out for jihad. Sister. This is a sister asking: I am a sick mother. My son has gone out for jihad and I am not pleased with him, and I am supplicating against him and against those who misled my son. Am I sinful for doing that? And may Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Do not supplicate against him, but supplicate to Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) that He guide him, that He return him safe, and that He show him the right path. As for supplicating against him, no, it is not permissible to supplicate against him. He has made a mistake without a doubt, but you must supplicate for him for guidance, safety, and righteousness. Yes.
