Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We have a custom where, if a dispute arises between two people and it is later established that one of them is the oppressor, he is ruled to take some livestock and bring it to the oppressed person so that he may forgive him. Is this permissible?
Answer:
This is from the rulings of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance (jahiliyyah). It is obligatory that the ruling be made according to the Shari'ah. They go to the judge, the Shari'ah court, to restore the wrongs to their owner. The judge restores the wrongs to their owner and restores the right to its proper place.
