Harming one's neighbor is an evil, forbidden act according to the , as evidenced by the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "He whose neighbor is not safe from his mischief will not enter Paradise." Whoever has harmed their neighbors must repent to Allah, seek their forgiveness generally, and show kindness to them by offering food and the like, for that is among the greatest qualities of faith. If it is not possible to seek their forgiveness, then one should strive to supplicate for them and seek Allah's forgiveness for them.
