The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner asks: Does the category of "those whose hearts are to be reconciled" include Muslims, for the purpose of settling disputes between them and restraining a Muslim from harming another?
The Shaykh:
If Muslims dispute and fighting breaks out between them,[Al-Hujurat 49:9] one should intervene, restrain some of them from harming others, and bear the cost. Yes, this is from among the wrongdoers.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. May Allah keep you safe. Does it fall under the saying of Allah the Exalted: Does it fall under "those whose hearts are to be reconciled"?
The Shaykh:
The reconciled, they say. Yes.
The questioner:
Muslims, for the purpose of settling disputes between them and restraining the harm of one Muslim toward another?
The Shaykh:
How can a believer be like this? This does not make him a believer. This is from settling disputes and being a debtor to others. One is not given [money] for reconciliation unless he is a Muslim weak in faith, or a Muslim who is wavering, and he is given [money].
