Resolving Disputes Peacefully

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) advised a worker to not resort to violence when in dispute with another person.

It was narrated from Ya'la that: he hired a worker who fought with a man and bit his hand, and his from tooth fell out. So he referred the dispute to the Prophet who said: "Do you want to bite his hand as a stallion bites?"
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ، مَرَّةً أُخْرَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَعْلَى، عَنْ يَعْلَى، وَابْنِ، جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَعْلَى، عَنْ يَعْلَى، أَنَّهُ اسْتَأْجَرَ أَجِيرًا فَقَاتَلَ رَجُلاً فَعَضَّ يَدَهُ فَانْتُزِعَتْ ثَنِيَّتُهُ فَخَاصَمَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ أَيَدَعُهَا يَقْضِمُهَا كَقَضْمِ الْفَحْلِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about resolving disputes peacefully. It was narrated from Ya'la that he hired a worker who fought with a man and bit his hand, and his tooth fell out. So he referred the dispute to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ who advised the worker not to resort to violence when in dispute with another person. He asked him if he wanted to bite the other man's hand like a stallion bites, implying that it would be an act of aggression and would only lead to further conflict. This hadith teaches us that we should always try our best to resolve conflicts peacefully without resorting to violence or aggression as it will only lead us further away from peace and harmony. We should also remember that Allah ï·» loves those who are patient and forgiving even in difficult situations, so we should strive for these qualities as well.
