Having a non-Muslim relative


A: Muslims should invite their non-Muslim relatives and other people to Islam and explain to them its virtues and beneficent laws and rulings. They should explain that Allah shall not accept from any person a religion other than Islam (submission and resignation to Allah Alone) on the Day of Resurrection. Perhaps Allah makes them the means of guiding others. In the Qur'an, Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: Invite (mankind, O Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islâm) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Revelation and the Qur’ân) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. (Part No. 25; Page No. 379) And: And warn your tribe (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) of near kindred. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: The one who guides to something good has a reward similar to that of the one who does it. May Allah guide you and us to attain His Good Pleasure.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions.
