﴿ وَلَمَن صَبَرَ وَغَفَرَ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمِنْ عَزْمِ ٱلْأُمُورِ ﴾

“But withal, if one is patient in adversity and forgives - this, behold, is indeed something to set one’s heart upon!”

But verily he who is patient and defend himself by retaliating and forgives excuses the wrong done to him — surely that patience and excusing is true constancy in such affairs that is to say it is one of those courses of action for which one must have firm resolve meaning those which are required of the believer by God’s Law.
