Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If my family asks me to take them to heritage festivals or others, which include singing and music, am I a sinner and undutiful to my mother if I refuse?
Answer:
If they asked you to take them to the mosques, you would not take them, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Their homes are better for them.Sunan Abi Dawud 566 You do not prevent them, but you do not go with them. Their homes are better for them, so how would you take them to parties and gatherings that contain what is wrong? This is not permissible for you.
