Is obedience to parents to be given precedence over congregational prayer, especially if the father asks one to stay home to guard money for fear of theft, and the son refuses that in order to perform the Asr prayer in congregation? Is his action correct or an act of disobedience?

The jurists differed regarding the ruling on congregational prayer, and the most preponderant opinion is that it is an individual obligation. Scholars have stated that fear for one's property is among the excuses that permit one to miss Friday prayer and congregational prayer, and this includes the father's property. The son must obey his father in what is good. The fear should have a real cause and not merely be an illusion.
