My parents do not agree with us settling permanently abroad. How do we discuss it with them?

First listen fully to their fears, then show them a plan that answers those fears. For ageing parents, a child leaving often means fear of loss, fear of falling ill with no one to care for them, and fear of not knowing their grandchildren. Give concrete assurances: how often you will come home, regular calls, and the siblings who will help them here. If they depend on you financially, make sure that help continues from afar. Involve your spouse in the discussion so that your parents do not think the decision was pushed by one side. Respect and devotion remain obligatory even when you make your own decision as an adult. Allah says: “And, out of kindness, lower to them the wing of humility” (Surah al-Isra' 17:24). See devotion to parents.
