What to do in such situation , and if she didn't told them reason and cut if ties with them, will it sinful . It is allowed to make dua for such people. Thank you for your time

Islamic Ruling & Answer

Verified

In this matter, making fun of “Allahu Akbar” is wrong and disrespectful, so you were right to explain it to them. If they repeatedly refuse to understand, then distancing yourself from them is appropriate and not sinful. It is not necessary to state the reason, but explaining it gently is better so they may realize their mistake. And making dua for their guidance is completely permissible.
