Question:
He says: My father has a tendency to make decisions quickly and does not deliberate on them, which ultimately leads to some problems. When I speak to him and advise him when he makes a decision, he does not accept the advice and considers it undutifulness on my part. What is the ruling on advising him?
Answer:
If your father is doing something of the sins or violations, it is obligatory for you to advise him, admonish him, and remind him. But if he is making worldly decisions, you have no right to object to him; he is free in his actions, and you should not object to him regarding his wealth, except if he is dealing in what is forbidden, in which case you may advise him, admonish him, and remind him.
