who don’t marry their daughters on time & are not even worried about that, what’s their punishment?
Re: Parents
good question. if that's true as you explained then Allah knows best what He'll do with such parents.
having said that, however, Allah will KNOW for sure if that delay/postponement was due to a genuine reason [not be able to find a compatible/suitable match from both religious and worldly perspective].
as far as Islam is concerned, Allah will judge every soul 'JUSTLY'. there is NO prescribed punishment for the neglect parents show towards discharging their fatherly/motherly responsibilities to the best of my knowledge.
Re: Parents
None?
They can't get away with it. As parents rights are such big deal, there must be something regarding this too.
Re: Parents
I think that just like everyone else, parents too will be questioned about their rehmat and naimat , daughters/ son
Just as when someone passes away and has left behind a good soul who keeps the dead in prayers
What kind/ in which state of children are left behind by parents , i think will be questioned just like all our deeds
My opinion
What if daughter does something wrong.... who will be responsible for that? Will parents be held responsible for that?
Depends on what “wrong” you’re speaking of. If the parents are really that uninterested that it compels the daughter to get married without them …then I don’t think that’s a sin …provided the guy is a Muslim.
If the “wrong” is something like committing zina …then the girl will held responsible because there’s always a halal way to go about things…even if it means excluding the parents for their failure to be supportive.
If the “wrong” is something like committing suicide or some drastic step that infringes upon the rights of others…then girl will be held responsible.
In Islam there’s no concept of even inheriting the original sin as there is in Christianity. No soul shall bear the burden or sin of another soul.
I don’t know how serious your situation is with your parents. If you feel that you are at the end of your tether and if you’re afraid that you might commit a mistake that you may regret…then you need to let your parents know that you are at this point now. Perhaps they’ll wake up. Or …let a sibling know. Or perhaps a trusted relative that can reason with your parents on your behalf. If that doesn’t work…then branch out…to perhaps a trusted family friend (although keep in mind that disclosure comes with risks). Or go speak to your local imam and take them into confidence and have them talk to your parents. Or if you’re at that point where you want to move out…then just make sure that you’re in a secure place (financially, etc)…before taking such a step…but even that does not give you the green signal to do whatever you want. Even in living apart, you’ll have to go about things (like marriage, etc) according to the boundaries laid out by Islam..
Yes I think your parents are equally responsible for whatever wrong you will do because they failed to fulfill their responsibility. If they are trying their best to look then they shouldn't be blamed, if not then you look yourself & if you can't do anything on your own then may Allah have mercy on you.
Marriage is your "huqq", its your right, you are your parents responsibility & they should marry you. If your parents die without marrying you off then you have to forgive them as they failed to fulfill their responsibility else they will be held accountable on the day of judgement.
Parents can't be ignorant of their responsibilities towards their children & they cant get away with it just because they have a title of a parent.
I would suggest you to be patient, at the same time struggle for your rights, try looking yourself & give constant reminder to your elders in this regard.
Just my opinion. Sorry if I sound insensitive.
