My brother is using interest.
Question
.He just got married to a girl he went out with for 2 years but they only bought presents did the movie thing - nothing serious. Although my husband advised him not to deal with interest he has gone ahead and put a deposit on a house. I believe my new sister-in-law is also having an adverse affect on him although my brother has been virtually nonpractising for about 2.5 years. How can I get them to see what they are doing wrong>
Answer
There are two aspects here:
One is I?elaam (to inform) and the other is I?emaal (to make others practice). Informing is merely a means of making others practice. The purpose (to make others practice) should be placed first and then wisdom should be applied in trying to achieve the purpose.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
