Is it permissible to boycott one's mother and sister until they stop their frequent outings for recreation and shopping in crowded places, especially after they have refused advice?

The Shari'ah has urged women to remain in their homes and not to go out except out of necessity, based on the Almighty's saying: ﴿And remain in your homes﴾, and because their going out to the markets may lead to temptation. Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen pointed out that the best place for a woman is her home, and that her going out may expose her to harassment from those with weak souls. Therefore, guardians should bear the responsibility of care, and a man will be questioned about those under his care.

Advising the mother and sister to minimize their trips to the markets is a good thing, and if there is a guardian who has the right to prevent them, he should fulfill his role. However, threatening to cut ties with the mother because of her insistence on going to the market is not permissible. One must treat her with kindness even if she disobeys. As for the sister, it is permissible to shun her if there is hope that it will benefit her, otherwise, it is not.
