Question:
Then he says, may Allah keep you safe, he says: Likewise, my relatives cut me off because of my Islam, such as my grandfather. So, is it obligatory for me to maintain ties with them and call them to the faith, or is there no harm in leaving them and no sin in that?
Answer:
There is no blame on you. Calling them and maintaining ties with them is their right. They have the right to be treated with kindness and their hearts won over, so that perhaps they may repent and become Muslims. Be generous with them, be wise with them, and be generous with them. Yes.
