Assalmu Alaikum Ya Sheikh
I think I am going through greatest test of my life. My parents neglected their duties all their life and put all of 4 children in troubled situations. They made us fight to each other to gain their own benefit. One of my brother did suicide and the other brother blamed me even though I had no fight with him. My parents instead of doing justice keep protecting my other brother. They still come to my home and live as nothing has happened. Being daughter I had no responsibility but I took care of their all needs . I am almost out of control due to anger and fear that they will keep harming us. What should I do not to commit disrespect to them but keeping myself composed is almost impossible for me. Please advise. Jazak Allah Khairan

Wa alaikum Salaam Wa rahmatullah,
When you are alone, shower and turn towards Qibla, do dhikr of la ilaha illa-Llah and salawat upon Prophet (saws). Ask intercession of Prophet (saws) over your situation, your anger and hurt, and seek the wisdom to behave appropriately with sound heart. Keep this consistently and be open to Allah’s (swt) guidance and protection.
