٣١ ـ باب في الإصلَاح بين الناس
الْقُرْآنُ الْكَرِيمُسُورَةُ النِّسَاءِ (4:114)
لَّا خَيْرَ فِي كَثِيرٍ مِّن نَّجْوَاهُمْ إِلَّا مَنْ أَمَرَ بِصَدَقَةٍ أَوْ مَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ إِصْلَاحٍ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ ۚ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ مَرْضَاتِ اللَّهِ فَسَوْفَ نُؤْتِيهِ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا
( سُورَةُ النِّسَاءِ (4:114) )

Translation: " There is no good in most of their secret talk save (in) him who orders giving in charity for Allah's Cause, or for enjoining what is just or making peace between people, and he who does this, seeking the good Pleasure of Allah, We shall give him a great reward. * " (4: 114) And

الْقُرْآنُ الْكَرِيمُسُورَةُ النِّسَاءِ (4:128)
وَإِنِ امْرَأَةٌ خَافَتْ مِن بَعْلِهَا نُشُوزًا أَوْ إِعْرَاضًا فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِمَا أَن يُصْلِحَا بَيْنَهُمَا صُلْحًا ۚ وَالصُّلْحُ خَيْرٌ ۗ وَأُحْضِرَتِ الْأَنفُسُ الشُّحَّ ۚ وَإِن تُحْسِنُوا وَتَتَّقُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرًا
( سُورَةُ النِّسَاءِ (4:128) )

Translation: “ And if a woman fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part, there is no sin on them if they make terms of peace between themselves; and making peace is better. And the human inner-selves are swayed by greed. But if you do good and keep away from evil, verily, Allah is Ever Well- Acquainted with what you do. * " (4: 128) And

الْقُرْآنُ الْكَرِيمُسُورَةُ الأَنفَالِ (8:1)
يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْأَنفَالِ ۖ قُلِ الْأَنفَالُ لِلَّهِ وَالرَّسُولِ ۖ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَصْلِحُوا ذَاتَ بَيْنِكُمْ ۖ وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ
( سُورَةُ الأَنفَالِ (8:1) )

Translation: " They ask you (O Muhammad!) about the spoils of war. Say: " The spoils are for Allah and the Messenger. " So fear Allah and adjust all matters of difference among you, and obey Allah and His Messenger if you are believers. ** (8: 1) And

الْقُرْآنُ الْكَرِيمُسُورَةُ الحُجُرَاتِ (49:10)
إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ فَأَصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْكُمْ ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ
( سُورَةُ الحُجُرَاتِ (49:10) )

Translation: " The believers are but a single brotherhood, so make peace and reconciliation between two (disputing / fighting) brothers. And fear Allah, that you may receive Mercy. * " ' (49: 10)

Translation: 153. Narrated Abu-Huraira: ' Allah's Messenger said: " One should give in charity for every joint of the human body (as a sign of gratitude to Allah) everyday the sun rises. To judge justly between two people is regarded as giving in charity; and to help a man concerning his mount, by helping him to ride it or by lifting his luggage on to it, is also regarded as giving in charity; to say a good word is also giving in charity; every step taken on one's way to offer the compulsory prayer (in the mosque) is also giving in charity; and to remove a harmful thing from the pathway is also giving in charity. " (Bukhari)

" He said: " O Ka'ab! Reduce your debt (to one half, gesturing with his hand.) " I said: " O Allah's Messenger! I have done so. " Then Allah's Messenger said (to Ibn Abu-Hadrad): " Get up and pay the debt to him. " (Bukhari)
