A father prevents his son from praying in congregation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: A teacher says, “I have a student in the first year of middle school, and he mentions that his father prevents him from going to the mosque to perform the congregational prayer. He says his father prevents him from going to the mosque to perform the congregational prayer, and he once hit him for it, out of fear for him regarding the boys of the neighborhood. He asks: What is your guidance in a matter like this?”

Answer:
He should take him with him to the mosque and look after him, may Allah reward him with good. But preventing him is an even greater evil, which is that he does not pray with the congregation. Yes.
