Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: Is it undutifulness to parents if I refuse to take my mother to a wedding, knowing that this wedding has music and singing?
Answer:
No, this is advice to her. You are not helping her to commit sin. You say: No, my mother, this is not suitable, and I do not want to take you there, because this contains sins and wrongdoings, and it is harmful to you, and I do not accept harm for you. So you explain this to her. As for if he just says "I am not going" and she only gets angry at him, but if he explains this to her and clarifies it, that is better for her feelings and calms her down. Yes.
