Arabic text

2340 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ رَبِّهِ بْنُ خَالِدٍ النُّمَيْرِيُّ أَبُو الْمُغَلِّسِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ، «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَضَى أَنْ لَا ضَرَرَ وَلَا ضِرَارَ»

Commentary

If someone tries to cause loss, hurt or annoyance, it is incorrect to retaliate with loss and annoyance, rather the arbitration of the wise and elderly, the council of arbitrators, or a religious court should be used as sources to fulfill true rights, and to stop the person from making trouble. b. Many such issues that appeared after the noble Prophet ﷺ should be resolved in the light of these rules; if something causes loss to an individual, or it is a collective loss, or the public gets hurt, then this must be eliminated.
