ANSWER:

You must make your visits with your father short and sweet so he does not have a chance to teach them wrong Shia beliefs.

As for your mother, if she said she stopped then you must trust her unless there is reasonable evidence to not.

Advice both of them with knowledge, wisdom, good manners, and diplomacy.

QUESTION: My mother suspects my father still practices sihr, but I can’t verify it or speak to him peacefully. When visiting he teaches my son beliefs I reject(Shiaa). She used to tell fortunes but says she stopped. I’m worried and unsure whom to trust. Islamically, must I visit them, or may I keep my distance?
