The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Sometimes there is a disagreement between some colleagues, and they agree that another person will make peace between them. This peacemaker comes and rules that one of them must host a dinner to please the other. Is his ruling correct according to the Shari'ah?
The Shaykh:
This is not a settlement. This is a judgment; he has judged against him and cut off his right. This is not permissible. Yes.
The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
A settlement is that it resolves the dispute between them, without stipulating a feast or requiring anything else. Yes.
