1029 we go first to seek forgiveness from the persons who has robbed us of our right۔Now having read Hazrat Masih Moud A۔S۔this instruction always came to my rescue۔So I asked them many times, repeatedly are you sure that you are right and your brother is wrong? They say off course, we are sure۔I said then it is your responsibility to go first to him because the leader you have accepted, the leader of this age Created by God Himself, he requires of you that if you are right you go to your brother who is in the wrong and seek forgiveness from him۔Now this leaves no options for a person who has got any regard for Hazrat Masih Moud A۔S۔but to come to terms with his brothers with whom he has fallen out۔What better formula could there be than this? So whenever you come across any Ahmadi who is angry at some thing with some one, Weather he is wrong or have not been wrong, that is a different issue, apply the same formula to him۔Tell him are you really right? and if he says yes, then you tell him this is what Hazrat Masih Moud A۔S۔says, then to prove that you are right you must take the initiative and seek forgiveness of your brother۔It is a beautiful teaching, it can unite a warring society, and once somebody seeks forgiveness of his brother even if he is right, the unification of erstwhile angry brothers becomes even stronger۔I have noticed this that to be angry, off course it happens, but to become friends after you have been angry sometimes strengthens the ties of friendship much more strongly than before۔Such people make up for the past grievances and try to appease each other
