A Father Supplicating Against his Child
By His Eminence
Shaikh Abdul-Aziz ibn Baz
(رحمه اللّه)
Q: A man with three children, whom are not negligent in regards to being obedient and dutiful to him, supplicates against them. Will his supplication harm them?
A: It is not appropriate that a person supplicate against his or her children as this should be refrained from as he or she could supplicate during the hour when prayers are answered so this person should not supplicate against them and if they are righteous then the prohibition is more severe. As for them being negligent then it is still not appropriate that he supplicate against them, instead he should supplicate for them with guidance, rectification, and success. This is how the believer should be. There are texts from the prophet warning the Muslim from supplicating against his child, family, and wealth so that his prayer does not coincide with the hour in which supplications are answered thus harming himself, his family, or his child. So it is a must for the one asking the question to safeguard his tongue and to stress and emphasize to the one who was taught this or does this to safeguard their tongue and to fear Allah so that they refrains from supplicating against their child or other Muslims, instead they pray for them asking for good, success, and uprightness.

دعوة الوالد على الولد
رجل له ثلاثة أولاد لا يقصرون في طاعته وبره وهو يدعو عليهم ، هل يضرهم دعاءه ؟
لا ينبغي للمرء أن يدعو على أولاده بل ينبغي له أن يحذر ذلك؛ لأنه قد يوافق ساعة الإجابة فينبغي له ألا يدعو عليهم ، وإذا كانوا صالحين كان الأمر أشد في تحريم الدعاء عليهم ، أما إذا كانوا مقصرين فينبغي أيضا ألا يدعو عليهم ، بل يدعو لهم بالهداية والصلاح والتوفيق ، هكذا ينبغي أن يكون المؤمن ، وجاءت النصوص عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم تحذر المسلم من الدعاء على ولده أو على أهله أو على ماله لئلا يصادف ساعة الإجابة فيضر نفسه أو يضر أهله أو يضر ولده فينبغي لك أيها السائل أن تحفظ لسانك ، وأن تؤكد على من تعلمه يتعاطى هذا الأمر بأن يحفظ لسانه ، وأن يتقي الله في ذلك حتى لا يدعو على ولده ولا على غيره من المسلمين ، بل يدعو لهم بالخير والسداد والاستقامة .
