9. What If Your Parents Say “Don’t Make Aliyah”?

from The Mitzvah of Eretz Yisrael · host Rav Shlomo Katz

A sensitive and common question meets the clarity of halacha: When parents object to a child’s desire to move to Eretz Yisrael, what does Torah say? Rav Shlomo Katz dives deep into the rulings of the Shulchan Aruch, the Rambam, and the Ramban to show why living in the Land is a mitzvah that even parental wishes cannot override. With compassion and wisdom, he offers the path forward: to speak gently, act with respect, and fulfill the mitzvah of yishuv ha’aretz with heart, soul, and conscious love for Am Yisrael’s future.
