What is the ruling on boycotting relatives who are negligent in prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A man asks: Is it permissible for me to be angry with my brothers and relatives because they watch television, eat haram, smoke, and mostly do not perform the prayer in congregation?

The Shaykh : Do not be lenient with them. Approach them with what is required to maintain your ties with them, and advise them. Advising them and warning them against the harm of neglecting advice is part of maintaining your ties with them and being dutiful to them.
