Question
The income of parents-in-law is haraam. They also are not conscious of Deeni requirements. Can I prevent my children from going to their grandparents where they will be fed with haraam and be exposed to television, etc.?
Answer
In fact, it is Waajib to prevent your children from visiting their grandparents. In this case, the grandparents should come visit the children if they so desire. If the grandparents are in error and exercising an evil influence on the grandchildren, then the mother should ignore the demands of the grandparents. She has greater right over her children than the erring grandparents.
