Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah bless you. We fathers find in the present time undutifulness and disobedience from some of our sons. So what is your guidance for them, especially in matters of worship?

Answer:
The matter of worship is obligatory; this is a right for Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), so compel them. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Command your children to pray at seven, beat them for it at ten, and separate them in their sleeping places.مروا أولادكم بالصلاة لسبع، واضربوهم عليها لعشر، وفرقوا بينهم
Sunan ad-Daraqutni 3:5
the sleeping places.المضاجع.

The presenter:
May Allah bless you
