Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A questioner asks: Is it permissible for me to take my mother to wedding halls that contain musical instruments and singing?
The Shaykh : No, it is not permissible for a person to take his mother, sister, or daughter to wedding halls that contain what is wrong, unless his mother has the authority to prevent these wrongs, in which case there is no harm. But if she does not have such authority, it is not permissible, for Allah the Exalted says:[Al-Ma'idah 5:2]
One last question, because now, look, the most important thing is...
The questioner : Everything is truly important, O Shaykh, but we choose...
The Shaykh : Yes
The questioner : I say that all the questions are important to us.
The Shaykh : Some are more important than others.
