The question

Is it permissible for me to hit my 11-year-old sister who ignores me, mistreats me, replies with ugly answers, and sometimes hits me, especially since my family is aware of her behavior and she doesn't respond to their warnings, or when is it permissible for me to do so?

The answer

We advise you not to reciprocate your sister's ill-treatment, but rather to repel her ill-treatment with that which is better, as Allah Almighty said: "Repel evil with that which is better."
