Question
Praise be to Allah.
It is not permissible to accept such
invitation whens these evils will be practiced openly. The same applies
if alcohol will be drunk openly or cigarettes will be smoked, or promiscuous
movies will be shown, or there will be free mixing between men and women,
or there will be wantons displays of beauty (tabarruj) and no hijaab.
But if you are able to remove or reduce the evil, or if you attend they
will respect you and will not do these evil things, then you should
attend for that purpose. Otherwise, do not go there, even if they are
your relatives, except on the condition that you can remove the evil.
