Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: My eldest son is married and lives in an annex above me. I wake him for the Fajr prayer, but he does not get up, or he wakes up for his work. He asks: What should I do with him?
Answer:
If he does not get up and continues in this state of not getting up consistently, then you should move him out of your apartment, and he should rent an apartment and move there, distancing himself from you. Do not let him continue abandoning the prayer while he is in your apartment, unless he is unable to rent one; in that case, you may keep him in your apartment. However, continue to command him to pray; you must not let him abandon the prayer. Yes.
