Hiding Some Matters from the Family



Question

Is it true that if you have a family who are not devoted Muslims and restricts you to do certain things, that involves Islam where Allah is directing you to do things that will help you to get closer to Allah you are obliged to inform your family on whatever occurs in your life? How about if you know your family will call you offense names such as Kharjwas, which they did many times? Thinking that you are insane that Allah is directing you to whatever that will benefit you? The things that Allah directed you were to boost your eeman, have righteous friends, and being involve in Dawah? But if you tell your family about this (which you only shared regarding the people who Allah directed you, your family became bewildered cause they do not 110% trust people and think that the Shaytan is plaing tricks with you)? Your family have personal and psychological problems in their life, who does not 110% look into fixing their self in front of Allah, are you still OBLIGED to inform them on what Allah is directing you to beneficial things?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.
The question is ambiguous. What we understand from it is that you are asking about the ruling of hiding some matters from the family in order to avoid the consequences of false accusations, being harmed by words and labelled with bad names. If this is what you mean, there is no harm on you in hiding these matters, so you do not have to tell them everything.
If these matters involve matters that would guide them to goodness and advising them, there is also no harm on you in hiding them in order to avoid the aforementioned consequences.
