A Muslim for more than three days


A: It is obligatory on you not to desert your friends, as it is not Halal (lawful) for a Muslim to stop talking to his Muslim brother for more than three days, as authentically reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him). If you meet them, initiate the greeting of Salam (Islamic greeting of peace) with them, as this softens the heart and brings them together, whereas deserting Muslims leads to estrangement and is the path to enmity and hatred. Moreover, when deeds are shown (to Allah) on Mondays and Thursdays, every Muslim is forgiven, except those who have enmity between them. Allah (Glorified be He) says: Leave these two until they have made a reconciliation. (Related by Muslim) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
