[Machine] That I have adopted your way and followed you in dealing with people's disputes, and I have distanced myself from evil as much as I can. And I have read a verse from the book of Allah that has deeply affected my heart. Tell me about it. Have you heard the saying of Allah, the Most Blessed and Exalted: "And if two factions among the believers should fight, then make settlement between the two. But if one of them oppresses the other, then fight against the one that oppresses until it returns to the ordinance of Allah. And if it returns, then make settlement between them in justice and act justly. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly." (Surah Al-Hujurat, 49:9) Inform me about this verse. So Abdullah and Malik departed from me, and then Abdullah ibn Umar came to us and said, "I did not find in myself any inclination to fight against this rebellious group, as Allah commanded me." Al-Qattan added in his narration that Hamza said, "So we said to him, who do you consider the rebellious group to be?" Ibn Umar said, "Ibn Zubayr's son rebelled against these people, expelled them from their homes, and broke their covenant. And Abdullah ibn Umar's statement is indicative of the permissibility of using this verse in fighting against the rebellious group."
