A couple of weeks ago, I wrote an email titled: “Can Cutting Family Members Out Ever Be Islamic?”
Someone sent me this reply:
Salam brother, What if its your daughter whom denounced Islam and moved in with her non muslim boyfriend ?
My response:
*********
Salam Sister,
Then it’s extremely important that you don’t cut her out – otherwise, how will she ever find her way back?
I would encourage you to drop any judgement of her and let her know that you’ll always be there for her, even if she makes choices that you don’t agree with.
Leave your door and your arms wide open for her to return.
Sometimes, it’s powerful to ask yourself:
“What would Love do?”
And Allah, the Most Loving, knows best.

Many of my suggestions may seem hard or downright impossible when you’re in pain, hurt, or fearful.
You know what can make them a heck of a lot easier?
Getting your Nafs out of the way.
How do you do that?
Go through the teachings in my programs.
Take this one, for example: Enlightened Relationships.
It’s a relatively short webclass (about an hour), but I share 5 counter-intuitive relationship principles that lead to a lot more wisdom, love and harmony in your home.
