Question:
Is the supplication of a father against his son answered if the father is unjust?
Answer:
Yes, the supplication of a father is answered if his son has been undutiful to him and wronged him; then his father’s supplication is answered. But if the father is the one who is unjust, that is aggression; he has transgressed in his supplication. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:[Al-A'raf 7:55] [Al-A'raf 7:55]. Those who transgress in their supplication—so supplicating against one who does not deserve it is aggression and is not permissible.

Call upon your Lord in humility
ادْعُوا رَبَّكُمْ تَضَرُّعًاand privately; indeed, He does not like transgressors.
وَخُفْيَةً إِنَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِينَ
