The ruling on undutifulness toward a mother if she wronged her son
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My full brother does not obey our mother; rather, he is undutiful to her, and he says that she was unjust to me when I was young. He asks: Is this action prescribed? If she was unjust, does he become undutiful to her?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible for him to be undutiful to his mother. Rather, it is obligatory for him to be dutiful to her, even if she treated him badly. And I do not think a mother would treat her son badly, but assuming that is the case, yes.
