How can one convince a brother who is disobedient to his father, and who believes his father deserves such treatment, to stop his disobedience?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is advisable to offer counsel to the father and brother in a friendly and gentle manner, with good admonition, as Allah Almighty says: "Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best." (An-Nahl: 125). One should vary the methods of advice and use everything that influences them, such as stories, encouragement, deterrence, and arguments. Furthermore, cooperation in righteousness and piety among relatives is important.
