Narrated by Aishahرضي الله عنها “Whenever Allah’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم was given a choice between two matters , He would choose the easier course as long as it was not sinful to do so; but if it was sinful ,he was most strict in avoiding it. Allah’s Messenger never took revenge upon anything for his own sake; but when Allah’s Legal Bindings were violated, he would take revenge for Allah’s sake. [Al-Bukhari & Muslim]
Commentary:
In this Hadith, there is evidence of ease and tolerance of Islam. Prophet Mohammed صلى الله عليه وسلم always recommends the better choice unless it entails guilt(sin), thereupon he usually selects the right path. Mohammed صلى الله عليه وسلم never took revenge for himself as he pardoned the Arabian (Bedouin) who shouted at him and the other one who strongly pulled his garment hurting his shoulder. This is a self-evident proof of the Prophet’s forgiveness (pardon) except when the law of Allah is violated.
Instructions:
1-Show of Islam as a religion of ease and tolerance in all matters unless it is a guilt.
2-Pardon and tolerance lead to harmony and brotherliness among Muslims.
3-Following Prophet Mohammed صلى الله عليه وسلم as a model example for pardon, tolerance, and patience.
4-A Muslim who pardons and tolerates others is greatly rewarded by Allah the Almighty.
5-Pardon and tolerance relates to public rights but not to Divine Rights.
6-Pardon & tolerance are not motivated by inability and weakness but by the desire for Allah’s reward.
