The Ruling on Preventing a Mother from Serving Her Son
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Your Eminence, the Shaykh, my father. My mother is old and likes to serve me herself; she is happy to serve me and prepare food and drink for me, and so on. I actually get angry at this behavior because she is my mother, and I sometimes prevent her from doing it. Do I have any sin on me, or should I please her and remain silent?
Answer:
The best thing is for you to hire a maid. If you do not have a wife, hire a maid to serve you and prepare your food, and so on, and relieve your mother from the fatigue. Yes.
