Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: A righteous young man proposed to me for marriage, but his family and brothers have a bad reputation for drinking intoxicants and insulting Allah and Islam. She says she is confused because some of her brothers reject him, saying that blood is contagious. So what do you advise her?
Answer:
Yes. I advise her to stay away from him. As long as he is from a family with these characteristics, there is a fear that the matter will progress to affecting her husband and her. So she should stay away from them, and praise be to Allah. Allah will make it easy for her to find someone better than this. Yes.
