Title: Assalamualaikum, Dear Sir, with due respect i wanted to ask you that leaving parents behind for the sake of better career is rightful or not? Note that the parents both are healthy, managing their financial status by themselves in a good way, other younger brothers still living with them, also they are showing complete happiness about the situation, my point is that one always know that parents are never happy at heart for leaving the kids stay away from them (even if they have many) but always are happy as they want their kids to grow & propser. JAZAKALLAH' KHAIR. Wassalam

Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

Leaving parents for the sake of better career is not good. It is better to live nearer to parents, care for them, serve them, seek their advice, please them, get their supplications, obey them and follow their command.
