Nouman Ali Khan: Bayyinah Podcast

Cutting Family Bonds | Part 2/2 | Friday Khutbah

29 min • 15 augusti 2025
In the previous khutbah, Ustadh Nouman discussed the importance of preserving family ties. This week, he offers a nuanced perspective on whether it is ever permissible to cut ties with those whom Allah has commanded us to maintain kinship with. This follows concerns raised by listeners who asked about challenging family dynamics involving abusive, dishonest, or toxic individuals who cause significant hardship. Is cutting ties with such family members allowed in these situations? What are the limits set by Allah?

Drawing from examples of Prophets mentioned in the Quran, Ustadh Nouman presents relatable case studies. He highlights how Prophets such as Ibrahim, Nuh, Yaqub, Musa, and Rasulullah (peace be upon them all) navigated complex relationships with problematic family members. These stories provide profound lessons on how Allah guides us to handle similar challenges in our own lives.

Ustadh Nouman emphasizes that the Quran teaches us to approach such matters with wisdom and maturity, showing that not all situations are black and white. He highlights the importance of distinguishing between manipulating Islamic principles for personal convenience and addressing these unavoidable realities with piety and God-consciousness.
