ANSWER:

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever pleases Allah by angering the people, Allah will suffice him, but whoever angers Allah by pleasing the people, Allah will leave him to the people.” There is no choice other than obeying Allah, being diplomatic with people but firm and steadfast. At the end of the day, no matter what you do, you won’t be able to please all people. 

I’m in a critical fix where i have to choose ALLAAH over my closest people in life. Obeying ALLAAH will cause their displeasure and i fear losing them. But i also know disobeying ALLAAH will make an ultimate loser. Obeying people include sin. How should i tackle this situation where i keep my duty to ALLAAH and don’t lose closest one, too? But choice must be made no other way out.
