AoA, this has been discussed with my relatives, but they say shariah is the law they follow..so frustrating when quran is clear on one thing, but still they follow something else.

This is a tough one, no matter what background one is from.

Ultimately, it comes down to this: https://reader.quranite.com/verses/chapters?chapter=28&page=2&anchor=56#56

Thou guidest not whom thou likest; but God guides whom He wills. And He best knows the guided.

(28:56)

If this is how things stood for the Prophet himself, then I suppose we should expect nothing different.

Peace,
