Dealing with Abusive Foreign Father After Divorce: Seeking Solutions Through Amal

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My parents have been divorced. My father who is a foreigner lives alone. He is verbally and emotionally abusive to myself and siblings. I want to maintain good relations with him however each time I would try to engage with him he would react abusively by saying nasty things about my family members and by cursing myself and family members. (Cursing my mother, brother, sister, husband, etc.). What should I do? Is there any Amal I could do in particular to help this situation?

Bismillaah

A: Start off ta’leem in the home. See that all your namaaz are performed on time and at some time in the day or night encourage everybody to start off zikr, durood shareef, istighfaar, and the kalimah 100 times each.

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