Question:
Assalamu alaikum,
My brothers name is [private]. For the past few years he has separated himself from the family. He will wash his clothes separately. Cook his food and clean separately. He will not allow us to touch his things or go in his room.
This week he raised his voice at myself and my mother. I asked him to speak respectfully as we are elder to him. He he has not spoken to anyone at home since then and will not eat any food made by us. He does not want me or my mum to come in front of him or he will leave home.
Please help me I cannot see my parents in more pain
Jazakallah
Answer:
`Alaykum Salam,
Continue to be firm in upholding obligatory respect in your house. “You cannot guide whom you love but Allah guides whom He will.” Let your parents say “Ya Haleem” x100 daily and make istighfar and salawat daily x300-1000 and give sadaqa.
