Advising those involved in major sins
Question
What should be our behavior with friends who dabble in major sins? Should we cut them off or advice them?
Answer
If you are able to advise them, then you should advise them and guide them to the straight path. If you are unable to advise them, then you should not associate with them as it is feared that through associating with them, you may become influenced by their ways.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
