Avoidance of Quarrel
Quarrel is very much disliked by Allah and a quarrelsome person has been decried in Quran; in contrast, forbearance, equanimity and avoidance of quarrel are attributes pleasing to Allah and he who has them is rewarded for them. Abdullah ibn Abbas has related that addressing a man of Abd-al-Qais tribe, our blessed Holy Prophet said:
"You have two trails that Allah likes forbearance and dignity" (Sahih Muslim).
So if someone be in the right and yet does he relinquish his right solely in order to avoid strife and quarrel or make peace, such a man has been given glad tidings by our Prophet may he be eternally blessed, who has been quoted as follows by Abu Umamah:-
"I guarantee a home on the verges of Paradise him who gives up quarrel even though he may be in the right" (Sunan Abu Da'ud)
How fortunate a man who has been given glad tiding and even guaranteed a home in the Paradise! May Allah grant such an opportunity to all Muslims, amen!
