Aslm mufti. I was really shattered to know that my father plays LOTO... And not only that, he also asks my little nephew who is still to circle or tick the numbers for him. In front of me he makes as if he does not play but today I saw my nephew asking him for money that supposedly he got by playing.Rs 100. By the grace of almighty Allah, we are well possessed but that vice of him is affecting my nephew and also lack of bar a kat in our living. Oh Mawlana please help me on hw to stop my.father from sinning. Long tym back i did try tlk to him through a bayaan but nothing changed. My dad is a well educated person and he knws gambling is sin bt still he does that...
