How to exit the state of ihram for one who has violated his honor out of fear of problems

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a young man has violated the honor of a Muslim, how should he seek his forgiveness if he fears that asking for forgiveness will lead to some problems with the people of the honor?

Answer:
If he fears, he should pray for his forgiveness and remind him of the good traits he knows about him, instead of the bad traits. He should remind him of the good traits he knows about him in the gatherings where his bad traits were mentioned, this for that. If he fears that asking for pardon will result in major problems, then he prays for his forgiveness and mercy, he repents to Allah and regrets it between himself and Allah, and he mentions his good traits that he knows of him instead of the blameworthy traits by which he mentioned him.
