Waking the brothers for the Fajr prayer, with the father's objection

Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, the questioner says: I wake my younger brothers for the Fajr prayer, and my father objects to me frequently, knowing that their ages are over ten. Is it permissible for me to remain silent about this matter, and what do you advise me? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
Continue waking them up since they are over ten; this warrants beating. A ten-year-old boy must be beaten when he neglects the prayer, so do not leave them alone. The father is the one who is disobedient in this matter by forbidding you from waking them; he is the sinner in this, and he is cooperating with them in sin and transgression. This is not permissible for him. It was obligatory for him to cooperate with you in waking them, because this is obligatory upon him.
This is an address to the parents, and "beat them for it" is an address to the parents. So if you do this, you are doing good and cooperating with him in clearing his conscience. It is obligatory that he should be happy and help you, not prevent you from doing so. Yes.
