Question:
Regarding a worldly right between him and his counterpart, where the counterpart persists in oppression or persists in belittling him and belittling people: is it permissible for him to let three days pass?
Answer:
Only three days; after that, it becomes better for him to respond to him. If he does not respond, the sin is upon him. The one who initiates the greeting is the best of them, as stated in the hadith of Abu Ayyub in the two Sahihs:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1932Sahih (Darussalam).
Q: And if he is persisting in oppression?
The Shaykh: And if he is persisting, meaning the right is yours.
Q: Is the boycott for the sake of the sin?
The Shaykh: No, this is a right for you, a right for the created being.
