The ruling on a father cursing his child in anger
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is another questioner, Muhammad from al-Qawi'iyah, who says: If a man curses his child while in a state of anger and the child is then afflicted, what is his obligation, given that he is now regretful?
Answer:
He must seek forgiveness and repent to Allah, and pray for the child’s recovery and well-being. Allah is near and responsive. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade making du'a' against one’s children, lest it coincide with a time of response and be answered against them. So one should avoid making du'a' against one’s children; even if he is angry, he should be patient.[Ash-Shuraa 42:37]. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
