A Grandfather with a Bad Character


Question :

Our grandfather, who lives with us, never leaves us alone. He beats us or speaks against us at every opportunity. Is it permissible to supplicate against him or raise our voices at him?


Answer:

Be patient and forbearing when he harms you. It is only natural, that as an old man progresses in his decrepitude, he becomes irritable and easily frustrated by raised voices and opposing his orders. So forbear these things, and try to avoid doing what agitates him or causes him to hit you. Perhaps this will help to calm him down. And may Allah grant us the right way.
