وَبِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ: هَاجَرَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " هَجَرْتَ الشِّرْكَ، وَلَكِنَّهُ الْجِهَادُ، هَلْ بِالْيَمَنِ أَبَوَاكَ؟ " قَالَ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: " أَذِنَا لَكَ؟ " قَالَ: لَا. فَقَالَ، ، لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " ارْجِعْ إِلَى أَبَوَيْكَ فَاسْتَأْذِنْهُمَا، فَإِنْ فَعَلَا، وَإِلَّا فَبِرَّهُمَا " (١)،

And it is narrated with the previous chain that a man migrated from Yemen to the Prophet (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: You have migrated from shirk, but jihad remains. Are your parents present in Yemen? He said: Yes. The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked: Do you have permission from them to participate in jihad? He said: No. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Go back to your parents and seek their permission. If they give permission, then very good; otherwise, treat them kindly.
