There was huge fight between dad and mom and So she left the house and went away. All these years I was living without her. But I recently got to know that she is Saudi Arabia. What should I do? Should I tell my dad or not because he hates her and the second thing is should I contact her? I am confused my heart says I should but I don’t know what to say.
A: You should maintain ties with your mother. You do not need to inform your father about it.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
