In our society, how willing a grownup kid would be (lets say 18 +) to force his/her mom or dad to remarry after the death of the other parent.

Somehow it looked upon as a taboo in our society, especially if the kid himself/herself is reaching the age of marriage.

Do you know of any such case. God forbid, if you are in such situation, what would you do? Lets assume that the surviving parent is younger than 55.

i would find a suitable partner for my surviving parentor encourage them to do so on their own ASAP and get them married…regardless of what ppl say…they have no right to say that i would be wrong in doing so because islamically i wouldnt be wrong in doing this.

there are many reasons for that… the biggest one is that these are our parents… without giving a d*mn about themselves and their needs they do whatever they feel is best for their child…they deserve the same from their kids

furthermore, islam says its desirable to get a widow(er) and divorce(e) remarried… and im selfish in the sense that it would be emotionally upsetting for me if either of my parents were sentenced to a lonely existence… i would not be able to be with them forever and what would come of them once im busy in my own life and family?

for islamic reasons, for the fact that my parents (like all parents) put their kids before not only their wants but also their needs and for my own personal emotional sanity …remarrying my surviving parent would be the only route i could go with and live with myself
