حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا كَثِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " الصُّلْحُ جَائِزٌ بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَّا صُلْحًا حَرَّمَ حَلَالًا أَوْ أَحَلَّ حَرَامًا " .
´Kathir bin 'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin 'Awf narrated from his father that his grandfather said:` “I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: 'Reconciling between Muslims is permissible, except reconciliation that forbids something that is allowed, or allows something that is forbidden.'”

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:


When there is a disagreement between two individuals or groups, the disagreement should not be allowed to intensify; rather, efforts should be made to reconcile them as soon as possible.


Reconciliation means that, in order to end the dispute, one agrees to accept less than one’s due right.
This is a deed of great reward.


No condition can be stipulated in reconciliation that is contrary to the clear ruling of the Shariah.
To stipulate such a condition or to act upon it is forbidden (haram).
