 The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'A Muslim's desertion of his brother is like shedding his blood.' Kanz al-Ummal, no. 24789

رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله :  لا تَحِلُّ الهِجرَةُ فَوقَ ثَلاثَةِ أيّامٍ ، فإنِ التَقَيا فسَلَّمَ أحَدُهُما فَرَدَّ الآخَرُ اشتَرَكا في الأجرِ ، وإن لَم يَرُدَّ بَرِئَ هذا مِن الإثمِ ، وباءَ بهِ الآخَرُ . الترغيب والترهيب : 3 / 457 / 7 .

 The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Deserting [one's brother] for more than three days is not allowed, and if they meet thereafter and one of them greets the other, and he returns the greeting, they will both share the reward. But if he does not return the greeting, the person who greeted is cleared of sin, and will take the reward alone.' al-Targhib wa al-Tarhib, v. 3, p. 457, no. 7

رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله :  لا يَحِلُّ للمُؤمنِ أن يَهجُرَ أخاهُ فَوقَ ثَلاثَةِ أيّامٍ . كنز العمّال : 24793 .

 The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Forsaking [one's brother] for more than three days is not allowed.' al-Kafi, v. 2, p. 344, no. 2

رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله :  أيُّما مُسلِمَينِ تَهاجَرا فمَكَثا ثَلاثاً لا يَصطَلِحانِ إلّا كانا خارِجَينِ مِن الإسلامِ ، ولَم يَكُن بَينَهُما وَلايَةٌ ، فأيُّهُما سَبَقَ إلى‏ كلامِ أخيهِ كانَ السّابِقَ إلَى الجَنَّةِ يَومَ الحِسابِ . الكافي : 2 / 345 / 5 .

 The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'No sooner do two Muslims forsake each other and stay like that for three days without reconciling, then they are regarded as having left Islam and there is no relation between them. Whoever of them precedes in speaking to his brother will precede entrance into Heaven on the Day of Judgment.' al-Kafi, v. 2, p. 354, no. 5

رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله :  لا تَدابَرُوا، ولا تَقاطَعُوا، وكُونوا عِبادَ اللَّهِ إخواناً ، هَجرُ المُؤمنَينِ ثَلاثاً ، فإن تَكَلَّما وإلّا أعرَضَ اللَّهُ عَزَّوجلَّ عَنهُما حتّى‏ يَتَكلَّما . الترغيب والترهيب : 3 / 457 / 8 .

 The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Do not turn your backs to each other and do not cut ties amongst yourselves, and be servants of Allah as brothers. Deserting a believer for [more than] three days [is not allowed] and they must speak [thereafter], but if they do not Allah Almighty turns away from them until they speak.' al-Targhib wa al-Tarhib, v. 3, p. 457, no. 8
