Is it undutifulness to parents not to obey one's brother?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Okay, I have a second question, Honorable Shaykh. Yes. My brother asked for something, and I did not fulfill his request immediately. In the same message, he said that if I did not fulfill my request, I would be undutiful to my parents. Then, before I could fulfill his request, he passed away.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So what is the ruling?
The Shaykh : There is nothing on you, because refusing your brother's request is not undutifulness to your parents, unless they ordered you to do so.
The questioner : Yes, my parents have passed away.
The Shaykh : Agree on something.
The questioner : There is nothing on you, Honorable Shaykh. What Allah willed, Honorable Shaykh. May Allah reward you with good. Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The Shaykh : Yes.
