I recently suggested 2 my cousin that her profile pic on WhatsApp was a bit too attractive. I’ve been dropping hints on improving on religion also for some time now. She blocked me in response.

You should not cut ties with your relatives, however you must give them da’wah every now and then. If you feel they’re a bad influence on you then you should not visit them often but you should keep in touch over the phone at least.

This is totally unacceptable. You should keep your doors locked and tell your husband he should warn his brothers from entering the house when he’s not present and also without his permission. Your husband can’t be a real man if he accepts this situation and you must not leave the room without your full hijab!
