Cutting the ties of kinship for a worldly difference

Q 4: We are brothers whose father passed away. My mother raised us and provided us with a good education - Praise is due to Allah. One of my younger brothers was studying outside the city of Riyadh. Four years ago, he married a divorced woman who had four children from her ex-husband. He married without our knowledge. When we heard of the news from an unknown person through his wife, we asked him for an explanation but he denied the whole matter. After she became pregnant, she told us of the news of his marriage. We blamed him for not consulting anyone in the family. He did not tell our mother that he intended to marry and that caused her great pain which she is still suffering from until now.Later on, he brought his wife and introduced her to the family who unwillingly dealt with them in a nice way except me as I could not stand this wound or this trial. Now, he is a father of three children. I see (this is my point of view) the rejoicing sights in his wife's eyes that she married him without our knowledge. (Part No. 25; Page No. 328) My question is: Since I hate to cut the ties of kinship; is there a sin on me if I cut the ties with my brother by not entering his house in order not to meet his wife? Or should I force myself and meet her despite my hatred to meet her? It is worth mentioning that my mother forgave him after she wept bitterly and painfully. He still prefers his wife to his mother and does not visit her for weeks.

A: As for the marriage of your brother without telling you, there is no harm in this and it does not affect his marriage but he breached the custom and good-manners. Denying that he is married is a lie and it is known that lying is prohibited and there is a severe punishment in this regard. However, all this does not permit you to disconnect your brother or cut the ties of kinship with him; you should establish the ties between you and him. Forgive the actions that have been done as an offence to you; this will be better for you and for him.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
