The answer

If the parents prevent (one) from congregational prayer or learning the obligatory knowledge in the mosque, then their obedience is not binding. The Muslim must endure what he faces for the sake of his religion. If the elder brother helps in obeying Allah, while the mother prevents (one) from praying in the mosque and orders (one) to drink alcohol, then the son should reside with his brother and not abandon showing kindness to his mother.
