Forgive?!?!
(But I can’t let go!)
Sometimes we get offended, and even though we have
the opportunity to forgive, our pride/honor gets in the way.
The Prophet (s.a.a.w) said:
وما زاد الله عبداً بعفو إلا عزاً
…Allah doesn’t increase a slave in anything when he pardons except honor / respect…
(Part of a larger hadeeth in Saheeh Muslim: Book #032, Hadith #6264)
So fear of a decrease in honor should never be an
obstacle because forgiveness does just the opposite!
