What should a young man do who does not speak with his parents due to problems and their displeasure with him, and whose father does not spend on him? Is it permissible for him to steal from his father, knowing that he sometimes unintentionally curses his mother?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A child must fear Allah and show piety and kindness to their parents, for the rights of parents are the greatest rights after the right of Allah. Any action that leads to disobedience towards them or insulting them is considered a crime and a major sin. It is not permissible for a child to steal from their parents. Rather, they must repent to Allah, show piety and kindness to them, and humble themselves before them until they are pleased with them.
