Question
My father gave my mother three Talaaqs. Although my parents are aware of the mas'alah, they continue living together as husband and wife. Someone performed a nikah for them. The three Talaaqs were not given all at once. It was over a period of years. What should be my attitude regarding visiting my parents and taking my children to be with their grandparents?
Answer
Your parents are living in the state of zina (adultery). The house in which zina is committed so flagrantly and in stark denial of the Shariah, is mal-oon (accursed) and so are the persons who are so recklessly and rebelliously indulging in zina. The zina of your parents is worse than the occasional zina others commit. Your parents are knowingly in rebellion against Allah Ta'ala. You should offer them naseehat, and respectfully warn them of the Wrath of Allah Ta'ala. Do not visit them. The children should respectfully make it known to them that it is not permissible for them (the children) and the grandchildren to visit them as long as they are flagrantly living in sin. In fact, they are regarding their evil to be halaal. This is extremely aggravating and it could result in evil death - death with kufr. While you should not visit them, if at any time they are in need, then go to their assistance.
