Question:
Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullah wa barkartu,
I was wondering if its OK to have more kids even if your parents say they don’t think you should be have any more?
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
You don’t have to listen to your parents if they request you to do that which is in conflict with the Prophet’s (s) recommendation: Have many children, as I will be proud of your numbers on the Judgement Day. (Hadith)
