Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

One should not harm each other.

Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), “It is unlawful to inflict harm upon your self and others.” (Mustadrak of al-Hakim)

Abu Musa (Radhiyallahu ‘Anhu) narrates that some people asked Allah’s Apostle, “Whose Islam is the best? i.e. (Who is a very good Muslim)?” He replied, “One who avoids harming the Muslims with his tongue and hands.” (Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 2, Number 10)

‘Aysha (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) reports: ”Rasulullah (Sallallahu ‘Alayhi Wasallam) did not hit anything with his hands, besides the time when he made Jihaad in the Path of Allah. He did not hit a servant nor a women (wife, slave girl etc.)”. (Shama’il)

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
