Is a sister who demands the return of money considered to be engaging in "disputes" that are not forgiven in Ramadan, knowing that she refuses reconciliation with the defendants due to the abuse and plotting to kill her that occurred?
If money was collected for a woman solely for treatment, she is not permitted to spend it on anything else, and her family has the right to reclaim it. If the sister entrusted with collecting the money did so in her capacity as the responsible party, and then another person spent it on something other than what it was given for, the entrusted sister has the right to demand its return to its owners, and she is not considered to be among those who harbor animosity. However, if she goes beyond that to insults and reviling, then she falls under the warning mentioned in the . She is not allowed to refuse reconciliation, for reconciliation is better, as animosity and discord lead to the severance of ties of kinship and hatred. A Muslim who has fallen into a dispute with his brother is advised to extend a hand of reconciliation, apologize to him, and seek forgiveness, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "And Allah does not increase a servant in anything due to forgiveness except honor."
