What is the ruling regarding a young man who has reached 18 years of age and has an issue with maintaining kinship ties (silat al-rahim) with his maternal uncle's sons due to an old dispute between his mother and his maternal uncle's wife, despite his attempts to communicate, knowing that his maternal uncle visits his other relatives in his city but does not visit him?

There is no sin upon you if you maintain ties with your family and maternal uncle to the best of your ability through communication. You must strive for reconciliation and involve people of virtue to end the estrangement and clarify its impermissibility. The maternal uncle is not considered a severer of kinship ties if he communicates with you, but he should visit you when he comes to the village and raise his children to do the same.
