Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: An incident occurred with my maternal aunt that led one of my brothers to boycott his wife for four months, and he nearly divorced her. So, my brothers and I became angry with her and have been boycotting her for about six months. Do we have any obligation?
Answer:
Yes, you have an obligation. Her right is not dropped. If she made a mistake, you do not make a mistake. Maintain contact with her, treat her well, and advise her regarding what happened from her side. But do not sever the tie or drop the right because she made a mistake. Yes.
