The eldest son’s forbidding of evil by hand in the absence of his father

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: Is it permissible for the eldest son to forbid evil by hand in the absence of his father?

Answer:
Yes. If his father has appointed him as the guardian of the household after him, he takes his place. He takes his place in forbidding evil by hand, because his father appointed him to forbid evil by hand. If he did not appoint him, he forbids evil by tongue. He forbids evil by tongue, not by hand. Yes.
