ANSWER:

If they’re not your kinship, no problem in not having a relationship with them if they have disrespected your father. If they are from the opposite gender, it is totally prohibited to be in contact with them even if they were respectful to your father. 

Our close family friends have disrespected my father, and my father has ordered me not to speak with them because of this, though I have grown up with these people and they still continue to contact me. Is it a sin to go against my fathers wishes behind his back and keep contact so no feelings get hurt ?
