How should one deal with someone who claims descent from people other than his own?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We have a cousin who has claimed descent from people other than us. What is obligatory toward him if he refuses to return to us?

Answer:
It is obligatory to advise him and mention the evidence warning him against this action. If he responds, that is well; otherwise, your responsibility is cleared, and he bears the responsibility before Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
