Only very few things are better than when you forgive someone who has hurt you so dearly when you could easily have remain angry at him. Your heart is reassured. And how could we expect the most forgiving and the most merciful to forgive and have mercy on is if we are not willing to forgive others irrespective of weather he did truly hurt us or not. And yes, he truly might have hurt us. He might have deprived us of your rights, lied to you, cheat you, betray you, but remember, we do this to Allah knowingly or unknowingly every day and yet he forgives. And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden whose width is that of the heavens and the Earth, prepared for the God-fearing. Who spend in times of ease and times of hardship and who restrain their anger and who pardon people. And Allah loves those who do good.” [ Sûrah `Âl `Imrân : 133-134] Learn to forgive others as it will truly relieve your heart of unnecessary weight. Carrying the grudges of others around with you is like carrying a very heavy load. It weighs you down. Your heart will be weak. Smile more, be open to opinions, and learn to forgive. Just when you think you are right, you might be very very wrong. Just when you think you know it all, your knowledge might b little compared to others. Just when you think you are strong, you might actually be the weakest. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “The strong man is not the one who can throw another down. The strong man is the one who can keep hold of himself when he is angry.” [ Sahîh al-Bukhârî and Sahîh Muslim ] So you can have 10,000 packs but if you can not control yourself, you are weaker than an ant. The one who wrote the is no better than the one who read it. May Allah strengthen us all.
