In The Name of Allah I need to know more about our relations with non-muslim family eg:my wife embraced islam in 1989,what if someone in her family dies,mother or father,can she attend the funaral.

It is prohibited to attend the actual funeral of a non-Muslim. However, we should not lose sight of our Islamic morals which strongly advise us to maintain good family relations, even though that family may not be Muslim.

If a non-Muslim relative passes away, take out some time and visit the family, console them, share with them their grief and display the best of character. However, the rules of Islam should not be compromised. Don't take part in any of the funeral activities, but find a quite time to visit and pay your respect, etc. Remember, your displaying good character is one of the strongest ways of bringing them closer to Islam.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
