The ruling on helping one's father prepare shisha

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A listener whose question we presented in a previous episode, who resides in Riyadh, says: My father smokes shisha. Sometimes he orders me to prepare it. Or is it possible?

Answer:
And that it is forbidden, and that it is a matter that is not permissible, and that your helping him would be helping in sin, and helping in sin is not permissible. Allah the Exalted said:
And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:2]
So it is obligatory to advise him, and to make it clear that this is a matter not permissible for him, and it is not permissible for you to help him in this sin. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
