Q: What can a person do or pray when someone tells lies about them. My far cousin has told someone who was to come propose marriage to me, lies regarding me and he believed her. So is there anything I can do or pray to clear these lies?
A: One should be entirely sure that the far cousin had done this. Do not base this on suspicion and hearsay. If it is confirmed, ask someone reliable to convey to the boy the reality of the matter. Forgive that person and make Sabr. The rewards of forgiving and Sabr is very great.
