Chapter: The Two Who Abandon Each Other
Al-Adab al-Mufrad 407 — The Two Who Abandon Each Other
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ مُعَاذَةَ، أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ هِشَامَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ”لَا يَحِلُّ لِمُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يُصَارِمَ مُسْلِمًا فَوْقَ ثَلاَثِ لَيَالٍ، فَإِنَّهُمَا مَا صَارَمَا فَوْقَ ثَلاَثِ لَيَالٍ، فَإِنَّهُمَا نَاكِبَانِ عَنِ الْحَقِّ مَا دَامَا عَلَى صِرَامِهِمَا، وَإِنَّ أَوَّلَهُمَا فَيْئًا يَكُونُ كَفَّارَةً لَهُ سَبْقُهُ بِالْفَيْءِ، وَإِنْ هُمَا مَاتَا عَلَى صِرَامِهِمَا لَمْ يَدْخُلاَ الْجَنَّةَ جَمِيعًا.“
Sayyiduna Hisham bin ‘Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: “It is not lawful for a Muslim to sever relations with another Muslim for more than three nights. Indeed, as long as they remain cut off from each other for more than three nights, both of them are away from the truth. Whoever among them returns to the truth first, that is, restores the relationship, his initiative will be an expiation for his previous severance. If both of them die in the state of severed relations, neither of them will enter Paradise.”

Benefits and Issues:
Severing ties is a major sin; however, if a person takes the initiative and reconciles with his brother, it becomes an expiation for his previous mistakes.
