What should I do about my son who masturbates frequently despite my repeated attempts to deter him through deprivation and beating?
The family sometimes bears responsibility for children falling into sins due to lack of guidance and providing means for them to fall into sin. To address the problem of an only son falling into sin, it is necessary to reduce excessive pampering, avoid providing means for sin, prevent him from being alone, and connect him with the the mosque and righteous companions. Furthermore, a beneficial Islamic library should be provided, and he should be encouraged to read, memorize the Quran, fast, and organize his time. The ruling of Islamic law and the negative impact of sin on his health should be clarified to him, and he should not be insulted or beaten. Instead, he should be dealt with through good admonition.
