Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Muhammad asks about the hadith
Do not cut off one another, nor desert one another, nor hate one another, nor envy one another. Be you , O worshippers o Allah, brothers. It is not lawful for the Muslim to shun his brother for more than three(days).لا تقاطعوا، ولا تدابروا، ولا تباغضوا، ولا تحاسدوا، وكونوا عباد الله إخوانا، لا يحل لمسلم أن يهجر أخاه فوق ثلاثة
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1935Sahih (Darussalam)
.

Answer:
Yes, the hadith is clear that it is obligatory to maintain ties between the believers, for the believers are brothers. Therefore, it is obligatory to maintain ties between the believers through affection, doing what is right, enjoining good and forbidding evil, advising one another to truth, and advising one another to patience. This is how the believer must be, because he said (peace and blessings be upon him)
The example of the believer with the believer is like a building that strengthens one another, and he interlaced his fingers (peace and blessings be upon him), saying: The example of the believers in their affection, mercy, and compassion for one another is like a single body; when one part of it complains, the rest of the body responds with sleeplessness and fever.مثل المؤمن للمؤمن كالبنيان يشد بعضه بعضا وشبك بين أصابعه صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال مثل المؤمنين في توادهم وتراحمهم وتعاطفهم كمثل الجسد الواحد إذا اشتكى منه عضو تداعى له سائر الجسد بالسهر والحمى.
Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
