Question:
Asalamualaikum Ya Sayyidi.
Please let me know if it is permissible to sever ties of kinship w your uncles & aunts if they visit you only to place taweez of sihr inside your home just to keep you busy fighting w each other all the time? Guide us plz. We even tried to warn them but that has made their evil intentions more powerful.
Answer:
As-Salamu ‘Alaikum,
It is not appropriate to sever relationships with relatives. Even if one’s relative is a sinner, it is necessary to try to correct him instead of severing relationships with him.
