Question

I am 27 years old. I did my class 10 in 2008, likewise my class 12 in 2010 and my fraduation in enginerering in 2014. I did my 12 in Science Stream which was ordered by my father and uncle. I was then ordered to do my graduation which was also my father's decision. I left several jobs which was of my engineering field due to lack of interest. Now again I am in the same situation. My father has send me to out station for the same engineering job, which I am not interested in. I am fed up of my mind. I do not have a way out. I just want to stay my home town and work there of my choice. Will it be good? I dont want to live away from my family. Please suggest me some opinions. I am unable to take my decisions. I am pressurized by my uncle. I dont have a wealth love. I just want to stay my home town and earn my living.

Answer

That is the more sensible thing to do. Be near your parents and offer your khidmat to them.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
