Forgive & Forget

[MM]

The Messenger of Allah (SAW) was seated in a gathering with the Sahabah when he looked towards the entrance and said, “A man of Paradise is coming.”
At that instance someone who seemed to be very ordinary entered the mosque where they were seated. A Sahabi was curious as to why the Prophet (SAW) said this, so he followed the man to his house. This Sahabi told the man that he was a traveler and stayed as a guest. For three days the Sahabi saw nothing unusual, so he finally told the man what the Prophet (SAW) had said and asked him what was so special. The man thought for a long time and said, **“There might be one thing – before going to sleep every night, I forgive everyone and sleep with a clean heart.” **

We should all take an example from this hadith and hold no ill feelings toward anyone, and forgive for the sake of Allah (SWT). It not only helps us in getting a sound and peaceful night of sleep, but also helps us to attain Jannah, In Sha Allah.

Allah (SWT) says that He will forgive people if they forgive each other in this life.

Re: Forgive & Forget

If person A has wronged person B, A needs to acknowledge his mistake and ask for forgiveness. Sincerrly. Otherwise forgiveness is withiut meaning?
