Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In his question, he says: I have some of my cousins, both paternal and maternal, who have bad dispositions. They show signs of envy toward some of my possessions. Is distancing myself from them and putting an end to the relationship considered severing family ties?
Answer:
What harm is there in this? Even if he envied you, you should maintain the tie with him. In the hadith, it is said: "Maintain your family ties, even if they sever them." Yes.
