Clemency, Tolerance and Gentleness |
Allah, the Exalted, says: "...who repress anger, and who pardon men; verily, Allah loves Al-Muhsinun (the good-doers)." (3:134) "Show forgiveness, enjoin what is good, and turn away from the foolish (i.e., dont punish them)." (7:199) "The good deed and the evil deed cannot be equal. Repel (the evil) with one which is better (i.e., Allah orders the faithful believers to be patient at the time of anger, and to excuse those who treat them badly) then verily he, between whom and you there was enmity, (will become) as though he was a close friend. But none is granted it (the above quality) except those who are patient - and none is granted it except the owner of the great portion (of happiness in the Hereafter, i.e., Jannah and of a high moral character) in this world." (41:34,35) "And verily, whosoever shows patience and forgives that would truly be from the things recommended by Allah." (42:43) |
