For the son: being gentle with his parents and softening his speech to them, even if he sees something in them that contradicts the Shari'ah

Fatwa number ( 11156 )
Q: Is it permissible for a man to cover his mother if he sees her deviating from the way of Allah or what Allah has commanded, and will Allah respond to her supplication if she
becomes angry with me, or will Allah not accept it? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
A: The son should be gentle with his parents and soften his speech to them. If he sees something in them that contradicts the Islamic Shari'ah, he should clarify the truth to them and guide them to the path of guidance in a good manner, without forcing them to become angry with him because of clarifying the truth. Indeed, the Prophet of Allah Ibrahim (peace be upon him) called his father to the worship of Allah and forbade him from worshipping Satan. We have in the father of the prophets a good example and role model. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
