The answer

It is not permissible for a Muslim to shun his brother for more than three nights. If he dies while shunning, he will enter Hellfire. The matter is even more serious among blood relatives, whose kinship Islam has mandated to be maintained. Therefore, we advise you to fear Allah, renew your repentance, and take the initiative to reconcile with your brother and maintain kinship with him, so that Allah may forgive you, accept your repentance, and elevate your deeds. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The gates of Paradise are opened on Monday and Thursday. Then every servant who does not associate anything with Allah is forgiven, except for a man between whom and his brother there is animosity. It is said: 'Wait for these two until they reconcile.'" As for your fear of problems recurring after reconciliation, this is from the whispers of Satan, for reconciliation is better.
