The ruling on disciplining a son who does not pray Fajr and installs a shower
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I have one of my sons who does not pray Fajr at all. I have advised him several times, but he did not heed it. The other matter is that he installed a shower in my house. I tried to convince him to remove it, but he refused. What should I do? Should I expel him from the house, or what do you advise us to do?
Answer:
If you are able to discipline him, discipline him and beat him. If you are not able to do that, remove him from your house and remove the shower, and remove him from your house; because he is an unsound son. Or refer his case to the Commission so that the Commission disciplines him, or to the Prince of the country so that he becomes upright in obedience to Allah and His Messenger, performs the prayer in congregation, and leaves the shower. As for if that is not feasible for you, then remove him, expel him, remove the shower, and supplicate to Allah for his guidance, and praise be to Allah. And if it is feasible to refer his case to the Commission in your country or to the Prince in your country so that they help you with that, then that is good.
