Question:
I was a guest at the home of one of my friends and found him listening to songs. I advised him, but he did not listen to me. Should I cut off ties with him, even though he is a close relative, or
Answer:
should you continue to advise him? Try your best, perhaps Allah will guide him through His means. Do not be present when there is wrongdoing; if you find someone engaged in wrongdoing and he does not repent, do not be present with him in that wrongdoing.
