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

Question: My father is making me attend exams for university and skip my last year of school, something that is considered cheating and illegal.  I know this is wrong, but  I’m a minor who is still dependent on my family, so I don’t know what to do. I also have these more specific questions: 1)My friends are sure to ask about my education. Can I tell them and smile about it? Or would it be like smiling about a sin? Can I ever be happy at university, knowing my education was attained by wrong means? 2)) Could you call my education haram as of now? And the education that I have to undertake in the following years to come? 3) Would I be receive hardships for these sins I did not commit? You mentioned that in Islam, “we are not questioned by God of sins we commit under duress, mistake or forgetfulness”, so will we be physically tested upon? 4) Could these sins be cleansed by good actions? Is this question considered backbiting?
