A son provides for his father, and the father has a Hindu, disbelieving worker, so he advised him to remove him, but he refused; does the son cut off the financial support?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The Shaykh, a man gives his father from his salary, and this father has a farm and a disbelieving worker?
The Shaykh : Who has the farm?
The questioner : The father of this son.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : And he has a Hindu, disbelieving worker. He tried to advise him to remove him and replace him with a Muslim, but the father refused. So is it permissible for him to cut off the salary he gives his father, or what should he do, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : He may take from it; there is no harm if he disobeys his father, for example.
The questioner : The son gives him from his salary. May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : The son is an employee and gives his father from his salary. The father has a farm with a Hindu worker.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : A disbeliever.
The Shaykh : Yes, yes.
The questioner : He says: My father, remove this worker, or I will cut off the salary I give you. He says: I will not remove him, and you are sufficient for me.
The Shaykh : And is the father in need of what his son gives him, or not?The questioner : By Allah, he has other sources of income, but he needs it; if the son cuts off this salary, he will be upset about it.
The Shaykh : I see that it is obligatory for him to provide for his father as long as he is in need.
The questioner : But the father gives the Hindu from this same salary?
The Shaykh : There is no harm; it is permissible. However, we advise the father and others who have non-Muslim workers to advise the non-Muslims and to seek out Muslim workers. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : The time is up now. A light question now.
The questioner : A light one, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Fine.
