Father & Brother

[Al Qassimi]

:salam2:

Muslim family, it has a father, 1 brother, 2 sisters and mother. The 2 sisters and mother do not wear Hijab.

If the father doesn't advice his daughters & mother to wear the Hijab, will he be punished? does this also go with the brother?

And if the father & brother do give advice but the sisters(daughters) n mother do not wear the Hijab; will they still be punished?

Will this also go to the mother, if she doesn't give advice?

Please teach me so I am able to teach others

 

[Al Qassimi]

Can anyone answer this question?

 

[Happy 2BA Muslim]

There is no doubt that fathers are responsible if their wives and daughters do not wear hijaab and do not adhere to the rulings of sharee’ah, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O you who believe! Ward off yourselves and your families against a Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones” [al-Tahreem 66:6]

And as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

“Each of you is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock… the man is a shepherd over the members of his household and is responsible for his flock…”

But if a person does all that he can and strives his utmost, but does not achieve any results, Allaah will excuse him and will not punish him; on the contrary, He will reward him for his efforts, and Allaah does not cause the reward for any good deed to be lost.

If and ONLY if the whole family are muslims, And the wife and 2 daughters aren't wearing Hijaab, Then it is the father's duty to make them wear Hijab ( by force if necessary), For he will be asked about it on the day of judgement.

Ibn Umar (raa) said that Rasulullah (saaw) said : "Each of you is a guardian, and each of you will be asked about your guardianship. The leader is a guardian, and the man is a guardian over the people of his house, and the woman is a guardian over her husband's house and children. So each of you is a guardian, and each of you will be asked about your guardianship". ( Bukhari, Muslim )

Also

On the authority of Abu Said Al khudri ( May Allah be pleased with him ) said: I heard the Massanger of Allah (Peace be upon him) saying:" Who saw ever of you a bad deed let him change it with his hands, if he is not able to do so , then with his tongue, if he is not able to do so, then with his heart and that is the weakest of faith".

I thought there was no compulsion in religion in Islam? What is the father supposed to do - sit on his daughter and forceably dress her in hijab?

Thank you for you're answer. However, I have to disagree by using force. Why? Well if you force them to wear the Hijab they are not wearing it for Allah but for you. Therefore, I say advice them for as long as you live. Never force.

It is not recommended to use force with those who have no knowledge of islamic teachings, Or those who are disbelievers, because we don't want them to hate Islam or muslims..
But when a muslim is fully aware of the teachings and not following them then it is better to use force in certain situations.

Muslim parents should bring up their children according to the teachings of Islam. Parents have to make their children get used to doing the obligatory duties and avoiding haram (unlawful) things before puberty, so that it will not be too hard for them to adhere to Islamic rules after they reach puberty. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Train your children to pray when they are seven years old, and smack them if they do not do so when they are ten, and separate them in their beds” (Reported by Abu Dawud).

Salams Br you are right it is important for the father in make the women of the house wear hijab and if they wont then they should not be able to leave the house with out hijab, but if the family are not practising muslims there will be no one to enforce the law of Allah Ta'la.
Also some have said not to use force but if our child were to use drugs or some thing like that we would have to lock them in a room to stop them doing this, we have to uphold the law of Allah ta'laa.
We hope that Allah ta'laa will guide us all
