Traveling to seek knowledge, permission from parents, and sitting with a father who deviates
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We sat and read it. Is it permissible for us to move and did I go out? And I brought it out with the same papers and I brought it out. As long as it is permissible that it be in the blessed permission. If the scholars do not reach guidance, but it is not equal to the point where it becomes obligatory to reach the scholars in this verse, is it not the greatest that you look at the occasion of revelation or not?
The Shaykh:
If there is someone among your brothers who can attend to your mother’s needs and serve her, and she has given you permission to travel to seek knowledge, then there is no harm in it.
The questioner:
And if you sit with the one who wears the colored garments, and my father always sits in front of you and spends his time in the frame of salvation, and he orders you to enter with him, then if I contradict him, he says to me, “I have reached [my goal],” so do I sit with you and turn him away? I advise this source.
The Shaykh:
It means you sit with him, because this contains evil, it contains evil and has an effect on the person, so do not sit with him. This is not a punishment, this is from the category of seeking safety, and you must also advise him, making it clear to him that this brings him evil, and that it earns him sins, and perhaps it will drag him into something worse than it, little by little. At first, he is lenient regarding images of women and songs, saying, “This is something I do not pursue.”
And later, the love of these things is imprinted in his heart and he becomes accustomed to them, perhaps he will get involved in hoarding them. Staying away from evil is undoubtedly a protection for the conscience and stronger. Yes.
