Obeying one's parents
Question
Do you have to obey your mother in everything except if they tell you to disobey Allah? (What if the parents tell you that you can’t go outside except on Mondays and they are abusive?)
Answer
It is with regards to things that are not difficult and things that they genuinely need, provided they are easy for you.
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.
