What is the ruling on maintaining relationships (Sileh-Rahmi) if you fear harm from a relative, especially if they have previously caused harm through malicious actions or hatred?
We must maintain good relationship with all our relatives even if the had harmed us or can harm us. Islam does not allow cutting ties with any relative even if he is a bad person. We must be careful while dealing with those who can harm us, but still we must maintain any level of relationship with them
Wassalam.
