Hadith 807
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُقْرِئِ ، قَالَ : ثنا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، قَالَتْ : " مَا خَيِّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ إِلا اخْتَارَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا ، وَلا اقْتَصَّ مِنْ رَجُلٍ مَظْلَمَةً إِلا شَيْئًا مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ ، فَلَيْسَ يَتْرُكُ ذَلِكَ لأَحَدٍ " .
Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was given a choice between two matters, he would choose the easier of the two. Except for the limits set by Allah, he never took revenge for any excess committed against him by anyone, and he would not forgive anyone who transgressed the limits of Allah.
