Urdu marginal note:
In the hadith, the word "amr" is used. In Arabic, it has various meanings. One of these is "consultation" (mashwara) as well. Qisas (retaliation) is the legal right of the heirs (awliya) of the murdered person; therefore, they cannot be ordered to forgo qisas, even though forgiving is superior. However, they can be advised or consulted, which is why this meaning has been given preference here.
