Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: My parents wish to assign me to certain matters, such as purchasing things or traveling with them. He says: My parents wish for me to travel with them or buy things for them, and my brother is upset about that.
The Shaykh:
That I travel.
The questioner:
He travels with his parents, and my brother is upset about that and says my parents must be just, and he says they do not feel at ease with my brother,
The Shaykh:
You should seek mutual understanding in this, understanding among you, and you should ask your parents to travel with you just as they travel with your brother. Understanding is a good thing, yes.
The questioner:
Sometimes they do not want it, O Shaykh. Sometimes some of the children do not suit them.
The Shaykh:
If they do not suit them, they are excused, but the point is if they do suit them, he should seek understanding with them and ask them to travel with him so that he may attain the reward of their companionship. This is not limited to one of his brothers. As for if they do not suit them, they are excused in this. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
