Calling Family and Relatives to Follow the Sunnah and the Pious Predecessors

Question : He says: The brotherhood cuts off the Fire, and the sons of the year with advice until the year of life, then in a Friday to the Arabic, so he delayed from them a year and a half, and they are strict in their Shi'ism. And he gave them the right to visit them and attend their gatherings, or should he ask whether he should lecture with their families and attend their movements and sciences? And the delay in their presence?

Answer : Yes, I see that if a person is blessed by Allah with following the Sunnah and the Salaf of the Ummah, he should strive with utmost effort to call his family to follow the Sunnah and follow the Salaf, so that he may be a blessing upon his family. He should not despair of the mercy of Allah, Mighty and Majestic. How many people were on misguidance and Allah, Mighty and Majestic, guided them? And how many people were on religious innovation (bid'ah) and became from the people of the Sunnah? The people most deserving of your advice, guidance, and teaching are your relatives. It is obligatory for this questioner to strive with utmost effort to call his family to follow the Sunnah and follow the Salaf, and to bring them beneficial books, and to let them listen to beneficial tapes. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, holds the dominion of the heavens and the earth, so He is able to guide these people, and He does not lie.
