Asalaamu alaikum...
When I first bought my house the back yard fence on the south side was down, and the fence on the north was leaning badly. I paid someone to come fix the south fence, but he did a shoddy job and the with first strong wind the fence came down again. Well, I never had the time or the money to fix it so I just kept putting it off. The neighbors on that side totally ignored it and me.
Well here it is two years later and I invite two brothers over to enjoy the spring weather; together we barbequed some chicken & halal hot dogs in the back yard and sat on my patio talking into the evening. As the sun set, we made wudu and I lead us in prayer with one the brothers doing adhan & iqama. We did maghrib together there on my patio - in full view of the south neighbors' back yard.
By the end of the week the neighbors had that fence mended. Alhamdulillah!!
