Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: If a student of knowledge attends this lesson, but without his mother's consent, and she had asked him to take her to a certain place, but he refused and attended the lesson instead, what is the ruling, and what is the guidance?
Answer:
It is not permissible for him to do that. He must take his mother, even if he is late for the lesson, because the mother's satisfaction takes precedence. He should take his mother to the place she wants, provided there is no sin involved, even if he is late for the lesson. And praise be to Allah, lessons are recorded and preserved today, so he can listen to the tape if he misses attending.
