The father leaving one of his children unmarried on the pretext of his disobedience

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
With your honorable thanks. The father has sons, except for one who is attached to that son. Is this permissible?

The Shaykh:
It is not permissible for him to leave one of his children without marrying him on the pretext that he is a person of sin; rather, the person of sin is more deserving of marriage. He will repent from his sin and be established, instead of being unstable, for marriage has a benefit. Yes.

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Be afraid of Allah, and be just to your children.اتقوا الله واعدلوا بين أولادكم
Sahih al-Bukhari 2587
