Question

Is it allowed for a girl to go against her parents and study something that they don't like e.g. I want to study fashion designing but my parents are not allowing. I am so much frustrated and just want to leave my home and run away should I do ao?

Answer

Listen to your parents and obey them in all permissible things. In this lies your success.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
