BASIS SURAH AL-HUJURAT(49): 9
“And if two parties of believers fight each
other, verily work at making peace between
them. If one party becomes zalim or unfair
towards the other, verily fight against those
who are zalim, until they return to obey
Allah’s ordinance. If they have so returned,
then make peace between them justly, and
be fair (in all that you do). Verily Allah loves
those who are fair.”
