Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: A man is undutiful to his parents and severs his family ties. Does he have any loyalty? And should his brothers boycott him because of that undutifulness?
Answer:
This is considered a sin, and he has committed a major sin among the major sins. So if boycotting him and cutting off ties with him serves as a deterrent for him to leave this matter, then he is boycotted for the sake of discipline. But if boycotting him only increases his evil, then he is not boycotted, and one maintains contact with him through advice, so that perhaps Allah may guide him. Yes.
