Guiding one's father
Question
My father said bad things about the hereafter and that Allah will not punish us with fire. Of course Allah has given me clear signs of his power. Now I'm worried about my dad who said that there will be no punishment. We will just sleep. How can I explain to him that we have a creator?
Answer
Refer him to some experienced righteous aalim.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
