It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) by her maternal nephew, Awf bin Harith bin Tufail, that Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) was informed that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) had said regarding her buying, selling, or giving gifts: "By Allah! Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) must stop this, otherwise I will put a restriction on her." Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Did he say this?" The people replied: "Yes." Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "By Allah, I swear that I will never speak to Ibn Zubair." When the estrangement lasted a long time, Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) sought intercession from the Muhajirun, but Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "By Allah! I will never accept anyone's intercession regarding him, nor will I break my vow." After some more days passed, Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) said to two men from Banu Zuhrah, Miswar bin Makhramah and Abdur Rahman bin Aswad bin Abd Yaghuth: "I beseech you both by Allah, take me to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) by any means, for it is not lawful for her to take a vow to cut ties with me." So Miswar and Abdur Rahman concealed Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) in their cloaks and brought him to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), sought permission, and said: "Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you! May we come in?" Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Come in." They said: "O Mother of the Believers! Shall we all come in?" She replied: "Yes, all of you come in," and she did not realize that Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) was with them. When they entered, Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) went behind the curtain, clung to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), beseeched her by Allah, and began to weep. Outside the curtain, Miswar and Abdur Rahman also beseeched her by Allah to reconcile, but Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) did not speak to Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) nor accept his apology. They both said: "Indeed, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade cutting off relations, as you know, and it is not lawful for a Muslim to abandon his brother for more than three days." The narrator says that when they gave much advice to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and explained the severity of this matter in Islam, she wept while telling them and said: "Indeed, I have taken a vow (not to speak), and the matter of a vow is very serious." They continued to insist until she spoke to Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) and, as expiation for her vow, freed forty slaves. Whenever she would mention her vow after that, she would weep so much that her scarf would become wet with tears.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Do not bear hatred against one another, do not envy one another, and do not turn your backs on one another. O servants of Allah! Be brothers to one another, and it is not lawful for a Muslim to remain angry with his (Muslim) brother for more than three nights."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "It is not permissible for anyone to shun his brother for more than three nights, such that when they meet, this one turns away and that one turns away as well. And the better of the two is the one who initiates the greeting of peace (salam)."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Do not bear hatred towards one another, nor compete with one another for worldly gains, and be brothers to one another, servants of Allah."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "When two people love each other for the sake of Allah Almighty or because of Islam, then separation occurs between them due to the first sin committed by either of them."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Hisham bin ‘Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), whose father was martyred in Uhud, that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say:“It is not lawful for a Muslim to cut off relations with another Muslim for more than three days. As long as both of them maintain this break in relations, both are deviating from the truth. Whoever among them returns to the truth, that is, restores the relationship, his initiative will be an expiation for his previous severance. If both of them die in a state of severed relations, neither of them will ever enter Paradise. If one of them greets the other with salam and the other refuses to accept his greeting, then an angel responds to the one who offered salam, and Satan responds to the one who refused.”

Narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I recognize your anger and your pleasure." She said: I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! How do you know?" He (peace be upon him) said: "When you are pleased, you say: 'Yes! By the Lord of Muhammad.' And when you are angry, you say: 'No! By the Lord of Ibrahim.'" She said: I replied, "That is true, but I only leave out your name."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Khirash Salmi (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "Whoever severs ties with his brother for a year, it is as if he has shed his blood."

Sayyiduna Abu Khirash Salami (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), he said: "To abandon a believer for a year is equivalent to killing him." In the gathering were also Muhammad bin Munkadir and Abdullah bin Abi 'Atab; both of them said that we have also heard from them in the same way.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is not lawful for a Muslim to sever relations with his brother for more than three days, such that when they meet, one turns his face this way and the other turns his face that way. And the better of the two is the one who initiates the greeting of peace (salam)."
