Question:
The questioner says: How should I deal with a person who curses me unjustly, and I am harmed by this curse?
Answer:
You must be patient, you must be patient, and you must seek reward from Allah. If he is cursing without right, it does not harm you; it only harms himself. His curse does not harm you if his curse is without right. However, if you have been unjust to him, you must retract your injustice, because the supplication of the wronged person is answered. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Mu'adh ibn Jabal:Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 22:246. If you have been unjust, you must ask him for forgiveness. And if you have been wronged, his curse does not harm you. Yes.

وإياك ودعوة المظلوم، فإنه ليس بينها وبين الله حجاب
