The ruling on severing family ties with a maternal uncle

Question:
To you, this listener says: I have a maternal uncle who does not ask after us, nor does he maintain ties with us, while we maintain ties with him, but to no avail. Knowing that he drove my father out of his house for a trivial reason, is it permissible for us, Honorable Shaykh?

Answer:
Yes, knowing that he… Okay. The uncle does not ask after us, nor does he maintain ties with us. We maintain ties with him, but to no avail. Knowing that he drove my father out of his house for a trivial reason, is it permissible for us, Honorable Shaykh, not to maintain ties with him and not to ask after him? It is not permissible for your father to take anything except what she consented to, and as for marriage, it is an obligatory right for your father, because it is part of financial maintenance. If you are unable to marry, it is obligatory for your father to provide you from his wealth, because this is among the rights obligatory for you.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well.
