Attending a close family members function where salaami takes place
Question
Close family members read salaami etc. in their functions. Because of the close relation we are forced to attend. Should we sit during their salaami or stand as in our heart we do not believe or accept it?
Answer
Attend the function after the salaami.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
