Whoever has wronged his brother should seek his forgiveness before there is no dinar or dirham. If a servant repents for what is between him and his Lord, the wrong done to people remains. If the wronged person's whereabouts are unknown, he should give charity equal to the value of the wrong on his behalf. The relatives of the deceased must settle any outstanding rights from his estate before its distribution.
