Part 5 - MUSLIMS ARE BROTHERS TO EACH OTHER

Bughz (بغض) means carrying a grudge to an extent that one starts wishing that that some harm befalls that person, that he be denigrated, he falls ill, his business comes to harm, or he gets hurt in some other way. However, if a person has done some injustice to another person, then it is natural that the victims develops ill feeling towards the perpetrator. In that situation Allah Ta'alah has given permission to the victim to avenge the injustice, and to protect himself from further injustice. Even then if the victim, while trying to protect himself, does not keep a grudge towards the perpetrator, and does not wish him harm, then this will not constitute Bughz.

From the talk "Be like brothers to each other", by Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani Damat Barakatahum
