Question:
May Allah reward you. In her last question, she says: I have a relative with whom a grudge arose between us. When the festival came, I extended my hand to her, but she refused and said to me, "Thank you," then she insulted me and even hit me and went to her family. However, she refuses reconciliation and forgiveness and boasts that she hit me. What should I do? Should I treat her that way, or are my deeds held back every Tuesday and Thursday? May Allah reward you for your guidance.
Answer:
Since you have tried to reconcile with her and greeted her, you have done what is obligatory upon you, and the sin is upon her. She is the one who is cutting ties and boycotting, so the sin is upon her. As for you, since you have tried to make peace with her and asked her for forgiveness, you have done what is obligatory upon you, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
