PARDONING OTHERS WHO HARMED YOU
Al-Sha'bī (رحمه الله) said,
"'Isā bin Maryam (عليه السلام) used to say, 'Benevolence (ihsān) is not that you show benevolence to the one who shows it to you, that is simply repaying him with goodness. But benevolence is that you are benevolent to the one who harmed you'."*
* Al-Zuhd of Imām Ahmad (p. 484)
