عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لِي خَادِمًا يُسِيءُ وَيَظْلِمُ أَفَأَضْرِبُهُ قَالَ تَعْفُو عَنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, that a man came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: O Messenger of Allah! I have a slave who behaves indecently, commits mistakes, and acts unjustly. Can I punish him? The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Forgive him seventy times a day.
