  Abunaa [Our Father] Sheikh Abu Abdir-Rahmaan Muqbil Ibn Haadee Al-Waadi'3ee [Rahimahullaah] was asked the following question:

Question: If a youth desires to seek knowledge and his parents prevent him or he desires

to go for jihaad and his parents prevent him, should they be obeyed in that or is there a

difference between them (seeking knowledge and going for jihaad)?

Answer:

As for jihaad, in them [in obedience and good behavior to your parents] is what you should strive in. It is not permissible that you should go when your parents have prevented you. As for seeking knowledge that which Allaah had obligated on you then verily, there is no obedience to a created being if it means disobedience to the Creator. Ahmad mentioned this in his Masaa'il of Ibn Hanee for verily he said: "I asked Imaam Ahmad about a man who was prevented by his father or his mother or both parents from seeking knowledge so he said "do not obey them, this is contrary to jihaad and like this also, had his mother prevented him from  Salatul Jamaa'ah, he does not obey her in that and also Hassan Al-Basree also said something similiar to this.
