The ruling on complaining about one's father to his sister
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you. One of the brothers sent this question, saying: Sometimes my father insults me with his words for no reason, and I feel pain, oppression, and brokenness. My father does not accept advice, so I remain silent and do not advise him, but the feeling of insult and oppression remains. So I go to my sister and complain to her. He says: Please advise me, Shaykh Salih, how should I deal with him? And is my talking to my sister considered backbiting about my father?
Answer:
No, it is not backbiting about your father. He is advising him. This is advice to your father. Yes.
