The Ruling on Cursing the One Who Wronged You

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If one utters a word to a person that contains a curse, and that person says, "He has wronged me," is there a sin on me for that?

Answer:
Cursing is not permissible. Cursing is expelling and distancing from the mercy of Allah, and it is not permissible for a Muslim to curse his Muslim brother. However, if he has wronged him, he should either forgive him or take him to court. If he is unable to do either, he may supplicate against him to the extent of the injustice, without using a curse. Yes.
