Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a woman living in a land of disbelief who married a disbeliever. Her father boycotted her after she refused to leave this disbelieving husband. He says she remained in contact with some of her relatives, and her relatives are asking: Is it obligatory for us to boycott her as her father did, or what should we do?

Answer:
She is a Muslim woman who married a disbeliever? This is invalid. This is invalid.
then do not return them to the disbelievers; they are not lawful [wives] for them, nor are they lawfulفَلَا تَرْجِعُوهُنَّ إِلَى الْكُفَّارِ لَا هُنَّ حِلٌّ لَّهُمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحِلُّونَ
[Al-Mumtahanah 60:10]
They are not lawful for them, nor they for them, so it is not permissible for her to remain in the guardianship of a disbeliever, ever.
