 وَأَقُولُ فِي القُرْعَانِ مَا جَاءَتْ بِيهِ آيَاتُهُ فَهُوَ الْكَارِيمُ المُنزَالُهُ وَأَقُولُ قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ وَالْمُصْطَافَ الْهَاديِ وَلَا أَتْ أَوَّالُهُ نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه اجمعي اشو family members and there were many questions like this at least two of them I brought together to make this question but a lot of questions where the theme of the question is family members who have enmity towards us because of the Dean because of the religion and that might be the way we practice the religion the commitment we have towards the religion إن شاء الله تعالى it might be because of أقيدة إشوز it might be because of different things but they have it might be because they're not practicing and they have an enmity towards practicing people so how do we deal with family members who have enmity towards us in the religion first of all we have to remember the آيات المشاء الله عز وجل said فإذا الذي بينك و بينه وعداوت كأنه ولي ونحمين وما يلقاها إلا الذين صبروا وما يلقاها إلا ذو حظ عظيم the good deed and the bad deed are not equal respond in a way that is better if you do so the way the one that there is enmity between you and them will become like the closest friend and we mentioned the آيات in the course in detail with some explanation and nobody will be able to achieve this except those who are patient and nobody will be able to achieve this except the one who has a great portion of reward in sight of Allah وما ينزغنك من الشيطان ينزغن فاستعيد بالله إنه هو السمع العليم and if the shaitan causes you to slip up and causes you to fall short on your standards of responding to people in the way that is best then seek refuge with Allah الله is السمع العليم so what we understood from this particular set of آيات or this particular passage in the Quran is that we need to respond to them in the best possible way people showing enmity to us because we are following Islam this comes from ignorance it comes from ignorance about Allah and about the rights of Allah so ultimately the way we're going to remove that ignorance is by showing them the beauty of Islam and the beauty of practicing Islam and always having the moral high ground always responding in the way that is better as for cutting off from them as we had mentioned in other questions the key thing here is that cutting off for the sake of Allah if you think that cutting off from them will make them turn back to the truth then it's permissible for you to cut off from them if you believe that you're cutting off from them will bring them closer to the truth however in this kind of case it's rare that cutting off will bring them closer to the truth because usually they show enmity towards you because of your religion cutting off from them will not bring them closer to the truth usually that's usually the case and also it's very important to use different styles of advice sometimes you want to bring in other people to give them advice you might want to try to reach out to them in some common ground that you have for example the common ground might be that you know the love of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم or it might be something to do with ذكر and اذكار or the Quran they might still have that love and respect for the Quran which were about Muslim family members but they they have enmity towards you because you're committed to practising the religion إن شاء الله and they aren't try to find that common ground and approach the conversation through that common ground it's non-Muslim relatives then again looking at different ways of approaching the issue it's not the way that necessarily one particular Da'a one particular person who gives Da'a is necessarily that their way is necessarily the the way to do it you have to look at each individual person and you have to find the right style of advice that's going to reach their heart and ultimately you always have to have the moral high ground you always have to respond in a way that is better and be the one who's doing the right thing even if other people are doing the wrong thing and Allah is the وجل most best السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته How can you do a two second action right now that will give you a share of the reward of everything we're doing on this YouTube channel simple like this video and click subscribe why it will allow YouTube to recommend our videos to other users and imagine the huge amount of reward that could be waiting for you on the day of judgement if you did that with a sincere intention of spreading the Deen of Allah you'll be rewarded for every single person who benefits from one of our videos as a result of your like or subscribe that's an easy two second action that you definitely don't want to miss out on do it now click like and subscribe and don't forget to make that intention
