Q: I'm living in my parents house with my brother who is on drugs. He keeps on stealing my stuff even after I speak so nicely with him. This is going on for years. He frustrated me and my wife and my wife is really putting pressure on me because of it. She even threatens to divorce me. I do confront him in a respectable way. Will it be the right thing to fight and hit him? My wife says I'm too soft and probably wants me to bash him. Will hitting him do justice according Islam? Please advise me.
A: Don't fight with him. You may just cordon off your section.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
