An Order to Reconcile the Ties Between Brothers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good and bless you. This is Arwa, and she says: Honorable Shaykh Salih, what is your opinion, and what is the ruling of the Shari'ah in your view in Islam, regarding full brothers and sisters who drive each other away? They cause problems among themselves after the death of their father, and the poor mother is with them in the house. They bring her sorrow and worry through these quarrels and these disputes among them.

Answer:
They must fear Allah and reconcile their ties. Allah the Exalted said:
So fear Allah and amend that which is between you and obey Allah and His Messenger, if you should be believers.فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَصْلِحُوا ذَاتَ بَيْنِكُمْ وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ
[Al-Anfal 8:1]
Reconciling ties is absolutely required, even with people in general, and there is a great reward in it, especially between relatives and those with kinship ties. So these people must fear Allah, reconcile their ties, and maintain their kinship ties. Yes.
