The Sons' Prayer at Home and the Father's Sin
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner Abu Badr says: My question to the Honorable Shaykh is that I have sons who, for the most part, pray their prayers at home, even though I am keen for them to perform their prayers in the mosque and I guide them to do so. Is there a sin on me if they pray at home?
Answer:
Yes, it is not permissible for you to approve of their praying at home. You must take firm measures against them, even if it means hitting them. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan ad-Daraqutni 3:5 and hit them for it when they are ten. It is necessary; do not leave them in your house not praying. Yes.

May Allah reward you,
