Is the questioner obligated to obey his parents by remaining in Turkey and searching for work, despite the prevalence of unveiled women, which is unsuitable for him, or is it permissible for him to return to his country, Syria, given the risk of bombardment and loss of work?

You are obligated to obey your parents as long as their fear for you from bombing and loss of work is the motive for their request for you to remain in their country of residence, as they have a valid reason for preventing you from traveling. If you fear hardship for yourself or falling into temptation due to the abundance of women who are dressed yet naked, then do not expose yourself to that. Strive to appease your parents to obtain their permission to return to your country.
