السؤال (بالعربية)

هل الولد فتنة؟ اذكر الدَّليل من القرآن؟

Official Transcript (English)

If your child distracts you from the obedience of Allah and from goodness, then he is a trial (fitnah). The evidence is the saying of Allah the Almighty: {Your wealth and your children are but a trial, and Allah has with Him a great reward.} [At-Taghabun: 15].

الجواب الكامل (باللغة العربية)

إذا شغلك ولدك عن طاعة الله تعالى وعن الخير فهو فتنة، والدَّليل قوله تعالى: {إِنَّمَاۤ أَمۡوَالُكُمۡ وَأَوۡلَـٰدُكُمۡ فِتۡنَةࣱۚ وَٱللَّهُ عِندَهُۥۤ أَجۡرٌ عَظِيمࣱ}.[التغابن:15].
