Maintaining family ties with one who abandons prayer and commits sins
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it obligatory for me to maintain family ties with one who abandons prayer and commits a large number of sins?
Answer:
If boycotting him deters him from what he is doing and shames him, then he should be boycotted. But if boycotting him only increases his evil, then do not boycott him; rather, continue advising him. Yes.
