Maintaining ties of kinship despite relatives cutting off from him
I stopped speaking to my older brother for a period of years, and that was [only] to avoid problems – so what is the ruling regarding that? And is what I did correct?
Our elderly grandfather
We have an elderly grandfather who is particularly ill mannered. And we fear Allaah if we were to leave him to sit by himself, and yet if we sit with him, he is very obscene in his speech – something which is not befitting of someone of his age!

After what I have experienced of her for the last 14 years, I no longer want to be responsible for her.

Reconciling between my parents and my wife

Quarrelling between my wife and my mother
