    Wa Alaikum Assalam,
    In Islam, maintaining good relationships with fellow Muslims is highly emphasized. The Quran and Hadith stress the importance of treating others with kindness, compassion, and respect.

    Cutting off ties with a Muslim friend without any valid reason is generally disliked. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

    “Do not sever ties with one another, do not turn your backs on one another, and do not hate one another. Be slaves of Allah, brothers.” (Muslim)

    However, there may be situations where cutting off ties is permissible or even necessary:
    1. Harm or corruption: If the friendship is causing harm or corruption, such as leading to sinful behavior or promoting un-Islamic values, it may be necessary to distance oneself.

    2. Abusive or toxic behavior: If the friend is consistently abusive, toxic, or causing emotional distress, it may be permissible to cut off ties for self-protection.

    In cases where there is no valid reason, it’s recommended to:
    1. Reflect on the relationship: Evaluate the friendship and identify any potential issues or misunderstandings.

    2. Communicate respectfully: Attempt to resolve any issues through respectful and open communication.

    3. Seek mediation: If necessary, seek mediation from a trusted mutual friend, family member, or Islamic scholar.

    Remember that maintaining good relationships with fellow Muslims is a vital aspect of our faith. Let us strive to cultivate love, compassion, and understanding towards one another.
    May Allah guide us towards the right path and strengthen our bonds of brotherhood. Ameen.
