Re: Seeking revenge from an ex…
I’ve heard that Islam allows one to seek revenge…although forgiveness is better. If you were to take revenge…(and I can understand the temptation)…it would indicate that your ex is still on your mind. Also, it can be argued that seeking reveveng would not make you much different from your ex…and I doubt that it would make them willing to answer any of your questions.
Even if you didn’t seek revenge…and just wanted to confront them about why they hurt you…there’s the chance that they may not think they’ve made any mistakes, may have too much pride to apologize or might not think they’re guilty, (it takes courage to admit your wrongs and to apologize), and what guarantee is there that they would even give you an honest response? What I’m trying to say is that…if you’re able to get some mental closure by talking to your ex…then more power to you. But, sometimes you can’t get closure from talking to the person who has wronged you…and it is up to you to provide yourself with closure and peace of mind…by learning from that experience and trying to move on. Takes a lot of inner strength to do so…it’s easier said than done.
