1 min readAlso available in العربية

The paternal uncle's wife committed a sin by stealing money, and she must repent and return the stolen items. The uncle is sinful if he knows about her action and approves of it. The questioner erred by severing ties with his uncle, as cutting ties of kinship is forbidden. He must take the initiative to visit him, embrace him, and show affection to end the estrangement. The questioner can demand his stolen money gently or seek recompense from Allah. A child must honor and maintain ties with his father, even if the father cuts him off or fails to provide for him. Islam has forbidden music and listening to it.
