Chapter: The Recommendation of Frequently Pardoning a Servant
✿ Narrated by Abdullah bin Amr (رضي الله عنهما)
A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: “O Messenger of Allah, how often should we pardon a servant?” The Prophet ﷺ remained silent. The man repeated his question, and the Prophet ﷺ remained silent again. On the third time, the Prophet ﷺ said: “Pardon him seventy (70) times each day.”
