🏵️🏵️Conflicts with neighbors can evoke strong emotions, yet as Muslims, we are encouraged to maintain good relations and exhibit patience. The Quran advises us in Surah Al-Hujurat (49:11), “O you who have believed, let not a people ridicule [another] people; perhaps they may be better than them.” It’s vital to approach all situations with kindness and understanding. The hadith states, “Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should speak good or remain silent.”

Thank you, Jody, for sharing your experience; it inspires us to reflect on our actions and reactions. Jody, how might this situation change your perspective on neighborly relations in the future?
