Fatwa No. ( 17688 )
Q: The hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): , so injustice to wealth is known to us, and it is: taking wealth from one's brother without right, whether by theft or otherwise, and Allah knows best. As for injustice to honor: from what angle does this term mean? And how is it that after Allah has covered him, he exposes his cover, and what follows from that in terms of harm
that befalls him, and what is done to it, and the scattering of the family. There is a hadith, but I do not remember it, which is: Please inform us of an explanation of this hadith
A : Injustice to honor includes: backbiting, talebearing, and disparaging a Muslim without right; for his saying (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Ibn Majah 3933Sahih (Darussalam) , and his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): Sahih al-Bukhari 1739 , so if the wronged person does not forgive in this world, then he will be compensated on the Day of Resurrection from the good deeds of the wrongdoer, so if he is unable to obtain the forgiveness of his brother regarding what occurred of backbiting and talebearing, then he should mention him with the good qualities he knows of him in the gatherings in which he used to backbite him, along with repentance to Allah, sincere repentance, and by that, forgiveness from Allah is hoped for him. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.
Q: The hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him):
Whoever has an injustice with his brother regarding wealth or honor, let him seek forgiveness from him today
من كان له مظلمة عند أخيه من مال أو عرض فليتحللها اليومthat befalls him, and what is done to it, and the scattering of the family. There is a hadith, but I do not remember it, which is:
Whoever covers himself or his brother, Allah will cover him on the Day of Resurrection
من ستر نفسه أو أخيه ستره الله يوم القيامةA : Injustice to honor includes: backbiting, talebearing, and disparaging a Muslim without right; for his saying (peace and blessings be upon him):
The whole of the Muslim is sacred to his fellow Muslim, his blood, his wealth and his honor.
كل المسلم على المسلم حرام: دمه وماله وعرضهNo doubt! Your blood, your properties, and your honor are sacred to one another like the sanctity of this day of yours, in this (sacred) town (Mecca) of yours, in this month of yours.
إن دماءكم وأموالكم وأعراضكم عليكم حرام، كحرمة يومكم هذا، في بلدكم هذا، في شهركم هذا
