Q: I belong to a very poor family, because my father sold all of his land, house, goods, etc. because he is addicted of all kinds of intoxications including women. Now he is stealing from people.
A few years back, my mama started working as a maid servant to bring us up. Now I am grown up and I cannot bear these things any more. I beat up my father when he steals something but he never stops.
I kicked him out from my house because I cannot explain what it is to live with my father. Will Allah forgive me? I do not want to do this but I am tired and can't bear this anymore.
A: For whatever he is, show some regards and respect to him. Protect yourself from his wrong habits and make dua for him. May Allah Ta`ala forgive you and all of us.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
