I had spoken harshly about someone.

Question

I had spoken harshly about someone. I realized that it was haraam gheebat. I went to ask maaf (apologize) to him. He refused to accept my apology. I have tried on three occasions to gain forgiveness from him, but he refuses. What is my position by Allah Ta‟ala?

Answer

The person who does not accept maafi/apology for no valid reason is sinful. He suffers from pride. The one who has asked for maaf is forgiven by Allah Ta'ala. Just make a good dua for him.
