Q
How does Islam view the act of harming one’s own family out of fear of poverty?
A
I asked Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) “What is the biggest sin in the sight of Allah?” He said, “To set up rivals unto
Allah though He alone created you.” I said, “In fact, that is a tremendous sin,” and added, “What
next?” He said, “To kill your son being afraid that he may share your food with you.” I further asked,
“What next?” He said, “To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor.”
