Obedience to the father in his preventing one from attending a family gathering
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: We have a family gathering of the sixth generation and below, and my father prevents me from attending the gathering. Is it obligatory to obey him in that?
Answer:
Yes, if your father notices that there are concerns in your gathering with them, or that this gathering has religious prohibitions, and he prevents you from that, then it is obligatory for you to obey him in that. However, if this gathering does not have any religious prohibitions, then you should try to convince your father and seek his permission. If he gives you permission, then attend; otherwise, do not attend, because obedience to the father takes precedence.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
