حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ:
مَا خُيِّرَ بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ إِلَّا اخْتَارَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا مَا لَمْ يَكُنْ إِثْمًا، فَإِنْ كَانَ إِثْمًا كَانَ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ عَنْهُ، وَمَا انْتَقَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِنَفْسِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ تُنْتَهَكَ حُرْمَةُ اللهِ فَيَنْتَقِمَ لِلهِ بِهَا

✧ He was never given a choice between two matters but that he chose the easier of them, so long as it was not sinful. If it was sinful, he was the farthest of people from it. The Messenger of God ﷺ never took revenge for himself unless a sacred ordinance of God was violated, in which case he would take revenge for God's sake.
