your ignorance is running wild!!! *[**Al-Nisaa **4:35**]** If ye fear a breach between them twain, appoint (two) arbiters, one from his family, and the other from hers; if they wish for peace, Allah will cause their reconciliation: For Allah hath full knowledge, and is acquainted with all things.*
Islamic Mediation is a well established process for resolving disagreements in which an impartial third party (the mediator) helps people in dispute to find a mutually acceptable resolution. The above mentioned verse from the Qur’an talks about the process of mediation in a family dispute. Islamic Mediation is based on the following principles: - The process must be fair to all parties with equal representation from each side. - The process needs to collaborative problem solving between those in dispute, - Every effort to aim for a ‘win/win’ situation which is acceptable to all parties - A focus on the future, with emphasis on rebuilding relationships or recognizing that agreeing to disagree is also acceptable but in a civilized manner - Respect for all concerned must be in the forefront of all discussions and dealing. - The past issues may be part of discussion without apportioning blame for what has happened in the past - A belief that acknowledging feelings as well as facts allows participants to let go of their anger and move forward. - Re-affirming the belief that Allah is watching over everything. Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) used to encourages and enable all parties to: - Think on a common-sense approach to resolve their issues that is beneficial to all including the families and the community at large. - Take a step back and look inwards for their own short comings and behavior in contributing to the issues and think about how they could put the situation right. - to come up with their own practical solution which will benefit all sides. - allows people to rebuild relationships as they work together to find a common ground for resolution - Reach an agreement that is their own.
