What is your advice and what are the possible means of reconciliation between two brothers who are in dispute over accusations regarding the forgery of a house deed and the placement of a dead dove in the water tank?

Brothers and their children are advised to fear Allah, maintain ties of kinship, and avoid animosity. They should refrain from harming one another, especially through cunning and deceit, for "whoever cheats us is not of us," and "cunning and deceit lead to Hellfire." Forgiveness and reconciliation are encouraged, for "whoever forgives and reconciles, his reward is with Allah." Everyone must strive to mend relations, for "the believers are but brothers, so make reconciliation between your two brothers," and "mending relations is better than theibadah of fasting, prayer, and charity," while disrupting them "shaves away the religion." Tolerance and compromise from both sides are necessary to remove the causes of problems.
