Question:
This questioner says: I have a brother who has a bad opinion of people, and on top of that, he sometimes curses and insults his mother while he is praying. What do you advise me to do?
Answer:
I advise you to disapprove of his behavior, to explain to him the right of the parent, and to explain to him that undutifulness to the parent is one of the major sins. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:[Al-Isra 17:23-24], [Al-Isra 17:24]. And in the hadith: Bulugh al-Maram 16:21 So if you anger your father, you have angered Allah (Mighty and Majestic). So you must advise him, perhaps Allah will guide him. Yes.

Answer:
I advise you to disapprove of his behavior, to explain to him the right of the parent, and to explain to him that undutifulness to the parent is one of the major sins. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:
say not to them [so much as], "uff," and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word. (24) And lower to them the wing of humility out of mercy
فَلَا تَقُل لَّهُمَا أُفٍّ وَلَا تَنْهَرْهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوْلًا كَرِيمًا وَاخْفِضْ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ الذُّلِّ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِand say, "My Lord, have mercy upon them as they brought me up [when I was] small."
وَقُل رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرًاAllah’s pleasure results from the parent’s pleasure
رضا الله في رضا الوالد،
