Is it necessary to tell them to pray, or can one simply focus on their own prayers? What if the sibling is reminded multiple times but does not listen?\\n\\nHow should one behave toward them afterward? For example, if I pray Maghrib but know that my sibling has not prayed, am I responsible for addressing that? If they ask to go to the gym with me after Maghrib, is it appropriate to go with them while they are not praying and I am not saying anything? Is it displeasing to Allah to spend time with a sibling who is not praying without addressing the issue?\\n\"}]}","answer":"{\"ops\":[{\"insert\":\"You're responsible for reminding your sibling to pray. This is part of the general nasiha (counsel) that we are all responsible for giving. However, you're not responsible if they choose not to pray after being reminded.\\n\\nYou should also encourage your sibling to pray by withholding privileges; for instance, by not taking them to the gym if they haven't prayed. While you're not obligated to take such measures with other Muslims, your blood sibling's situation is different due to your closer relationship and responsibility.\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fea0b76658b4c2328ed","tag":"Salah: Missed & Make-Up","count":92},{"_id":"668da0830b76658b4c23393f","tag":"Relationships: Sibling","count":29}],"createdOn":"2026-01-22T14:24:48.601Z"}
