مجھ پہ چشمِ شِفا کیجئے                          دُور بارِ گنہ کیجئے

قلب پتھر سے بھی سخت ہے                      اس کو نرمی عطا کیجئے

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

14 The Beloved Prophet صَلَّی اللّٰہ تعالٰی علیہ واٰلہٖ وسلَّم did not take revenge for cruelty

Our Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would treat everyone with love and affection, never becoming angry for anything personal, but when Shar’i boundaries were violated and the commandments of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ were disobeyed then only would he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم get angry.

Umm-ul-Mu`mineen, Sayyidatuna ‘Aaishah Siddiqah رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا has said: I never saw the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم taking revenge for the injustice done to him; unless the prescribed limits of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ were violated, if that occurred then the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would get very angry. (Ash-Shumaail, pp. 198, Hadees 332)

Umm-ul-Mu`mineen, Sayyidatuna ‘Aaishah Siddiqah رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا has said: From the family of Quraysh (Makhzoom) a woman stole something, the Quraysh started thinking as to who would intercede with the Holy Prophet  صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم on her behalf. Finally, Sayyiduna Usamah Bin Zayd رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ was chosen as he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ was beloved to the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Sayyiduna Usamah رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ when interceded with the Beloved Prophet     صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم on her behalf, the Holiest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘Do you make intercession in the limits of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ? Then he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stood up and delivered a sermon: O people! The people before you were destroyed because if a person of high rank had stolen (something), he would have been released and if a poor man had stolen (something), then he would be punished, by Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! If Fatimah, the daughter of Muhammad, had stolen, I would have (even) cut her hand.’
