My mother has had very bad experiences with my father who treated her very badly. He was involved in the work of tabligh supposedly but in reality he was just showing two different faces. My mother just has developed a dislike or fear of tablighi jamaat because of that. I know her fears are just because of bad experiences. The tablighi jamaat are a group of muslims following the Haq. Should I disobey my mother? I provide for her everything. Whatever she wants I always get for her. Except I want to improve my eeman and islam, therefore I joined the tablighi jamaat. Please help
It is unfortunate that your father ill-treated your mother and that has
resulted in her resentment for the work of dawah and tabligh. We advise you
repair the damage caused by your father by participating in the work of
dawah and tabligh and show more love and compassion to your mother. You
should inform her that should she require your services urgently, that is
fardh and you prefer being of service to her than going out in dawah and
tabligh.
