The ruling on approaching a Jew for the purpose of calling him to Islam

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Answer:
It is not considered a major sin if it is for the benefit of a relative or for calling him to Islam. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) visited Abu Talib and called him to Islam. He also visited a sick Jew who used to serve him and called him to Islam, and the man embraced Islam through his hands. If it is for a legitimate religious interest, there is no harm. It is based on kindness and affection.
