Allah Almighty tells us in the Glorious Qur'an
"Pardon them and overlook - Allah loves those who do good" (Qur'an 5:13)
"Those who control their anger and are forgiving towards people; Allah loves the good." (Qur'an, 3: 134)
"Pardon them and overlook - Allah loves those who do good" (Qur'an 5:13)
"Those who control their anger and are forgiving towards people; Allah loves the good." (Qur'an, 3: 134)
“Not equal are the good and the bad response. You shall resort to the one which is better. Thus, the one who used to be your enemy, may become your best friend.”
“And none can attain this except those who are patient. And none can attain this except those who are extremely fortunate.”
(Qur'an 41:34-35)
There are many hadiths that tell us of the importance of forgiving and accounts of those who have forgiven and pardoned others,
The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) reported that once there was a merchant who would lend money to people. If he saw anyone in difficult circumstances he would say to his children, “Pardon him his debt, perhaps Allah will pardon us.” Then Allah did pardon him.
And similarly the Muslims of the early generations had a similar forgiving nature...
Ja’far ibn Muhammad (may Allah have mercy on him) said, “For me to regret after having pardoned someone is more beloved to me than to feel regret after punishing someone.”
Qatadah was asked, “Which person has the highest standing?” He replied, “The one most abundant in his pardon.”
and to show the great reward given to the one who is forgiving and pardons others...
The Messenger of Allah was seated in a gathering with the Sahabah when he looked towards the entrance and said, “A man of Paradise is coming.” At that instance someone who seemed to be very ordinary entered the mosque where they were seated. A Sahabi WaS curious as to why the Prophet .‘ said this, so he followed the man to his house. This Sahabi told the man that he was a traveler and stayed as a guest. For three days the Sahabi saw nothing unusual, so he finally told the man what the Prophet had said and asked him what was so special. The man thought for a long time and said, “There might be one thing — before going to sleep every night I forgive everyone and sleep with a clean heart."
May Allah give us all the ability to forgive others for the wrong they do to us, and May Allah forgive us all for our sins
