My mum, my siblings, and I are living in poverty because my father never gave us any money; he used to give all his money to his adult, married siblings and parents and has given all his lands and property to them, leaving us with nothing.

Severing ties of kinship does not affect acceptance of deeds
Assalaamu alaykum. If a person cut the family ties for years and then repents and gives them cards as an effort to keep the ties of kinship and they live in my home. All those years, like two years; my deeds are not accepted? Does that mean that all my deeds were for nothing?

Brother-in-law has no authority over brother's wife
Assalaamu alaykum. My question is: can I stop my sister-in-law from going to my uncle's house (mother's brother) by herself as it is creating a lot of confusion in the family? She is my eldest sister-in-law among four brothers, and I am the youngest son-in-law to her, but my second brother says that I cannot tell her this as I have no say in her life... More

Her non-Muslim in-laws jeopardize her son's religiosity

Neglecting ties of kinship to focus on calling to Allaah
Assalaama alaykum. I want to ask you if it is permissible for me to ignore my muslim brothers and family members (not because of hatred, envy, or jealousy) except for my brother, sister, and mother. Is there not a hadith that states that the pleasure of Allaah is the pleasure of the mother? If I compensate it by being the best for my mother among all.. More

Swearing that a given piece of information is true but realizing later that it is faulty
In Surah Qiyaamah, Allaah says that the collection and recitation is upon Him. Does that mean that all reciters and imams who recite publicly and in prayer are not faulty in recitation ever? I had waswaas (devilish whisperings) on whether they are faulty in reciting or not. When I learned about this verse, I swore that they are not faulty. I am confused.. More

Extent of obedience to one's maternal aunt
Assalaamu alaykum. In one of your fatwas, you said that the maternal aunt holds a great status and that the nieces and nephews must be dutiful to her; does this mean that they have to obey her in everything halal and that if they do not do so they will be seen as disobedient to her and will be destined to hellfire? So if the maternal aunt tells her.. More

The mother's relatives are part of a person's family
Are the mother's relatives considered one's own relatives? Are they part of one's family? I know that they do not inherit, but some people in our culture go as far as to not keep ties and a loving relationship with the mother's relatives, saying that they are not part of one's family and blood ties and that the father's family are the only relatives..

Asalamu Alaikum, I have friends/relatives that whenever they get together smoke shisha. They invite me over and I sit with them but don't smoke because it's haram.
