Question: We say that if hatred toward a friend arises within you, you should outwardly show them love. But if a friend shows hatred toward me, is it my fault?

Answer: There is no fault of yours here! The Creator deliberately places you in this situation so that you can rise above it.

Question: What is the correct reaction to this situation?

Answer: Embrace your friend. He is giving you the opportunity to rise above.

Why should you take offense at him unless it concerns joint work in dissemination, translations, or other matters where disagreements arise for the sake of achieving a better result?

Otherwise, everything else is meant only for you to annul yourself.
