How do I handle the little brother of a friend who hates me?

Hello r/Islam

I’m a 17 year old male Muslim. And these last months I’ve been having problems with the little brother of one of my best friends.

That friend and his brother are also Muslims, and they take Islam very serieusly in their life. His little brother takes it a bit too serieus where it becomes bad in my opinion.

The father of my friend is an Iman, this is probably the biggest reason why Islam is an important part of their life.

But that isn’t the problem. That dude is a very good friend of mine, we talk about almost every thing and we trust eachother. But his brother hates me. He thinks that I’m not a good Muslim and that I have a bad influence on his brother(my friend). He said that I don’t know what Islam means and that I should educate myself before I talk to his brother(my friend), that I am a bad Muslim, because I can’t speak Arabic or Berbers. This has been going on for months now, but he’s being more extreme these last weeks. He reads the messages that I send to his brother(my friend) and uses that as evidence against me to make me look bad in front of his parents. I’m gonna admit some conversation that I had with my friend weren’t very Muslim-like. We talked about girls, and asked him for advice when I had a crush on someone and other things. That’s the “evidence” his little brother uses against me, I know that they weren’t all Halal, but his brother doesn’t have the right to read our conversations and judge me like that.

How do I handle this. We will never be friends that’s a fact sadly enough, but I’m willing to stay neutral with him. If he doesn’t insult me anymore. I want to stay friends but it’s almost impossible with his little brother. He talks about me in Berbers/Arabic with his brother because he knows that I can’t understand it. It’s really frustrating.
