Question:
He says: I wronged a person in a state of weakness, and by Allah, I have repented from this wrongdoing and will not repeat it. I apologized to the wronged person, but he refused and cursed and insulted me. I have forgiven him and am making du'a for him. His question is: Will Allah accept his du'a for me and my children? Because he said that he will make du'a against me until the Day of Resurrection?
Answer:
Perhaps you came in a state of anger, so be patient until his chest opens up and his heart expands. Do not despair; visit him again in the best manner. Yes. Otherwise, his right is not dropped by repentance; his right is not dropped except by his forgiveness. It is necessary for him to forgive, but it is obligatory for you to be gentle with him, treat him well, and wait; do not rush. Yes.
