Is a daughter considered undutiful to her father if she supplicates against him, despite his harm and injustice towards her and her mother?
The father's right over his child is immense, and showing him dutifulness is obligatory, even if he is a dissolute person. However, the child is not obligated to obey his father in matters that harm him. The father is responsible for his children, and if he wrongs them, he will be held accountable. It is not permissible for a child to mistreat his father, abandon him, or supplicate against him, even if the father is an oppressor. Rather, the child should pray for his father's guidance.
