The Ruling on Cursing One’s Children

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Umm Haytham, says: Honorable Shaykh, my sons and daughters always make me angry, so I curse them before Maghrib or after 'Isha'. What is the ruling on cursing them? May you be rewarded.

Answer:
It is not permissible to supplicate against a Muslim, let alone against one's children and relatives, lest it coincide with a time when supplication is answered. So you must be patient and endure, and refrain from supplicating against your children. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
