A divorced mother wanting her son to be with her when she comes to visit her family but the father refusing


418

A: It is obligatory on you to be dutiful to both your parents and be kind to them as much as you can. Neither of them is allowed to prevent you from being dutiful to the other. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Obedience is in what is Ma‘ruf (that which is judged as good, beneficial, or fitting by Islamic law and Muslims of sound intellect).” (Part No. 25; Page No. 159) It is not ethically good or proper that he prevents you from being dutiful to your mother, so you have to resolve this matter wisely to please them both according to your ability.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
