"FORGIVE OTHERS AS QUICKLY AS YOU EXPECT ALL TO FORGIVE YOU"
Forgiving someone who has wronged you is actually a selfish at rather than a selfless one.Letting go of the hostility and hatred that you may have allowed to bottle up inside you is actually something you do for yourself rather than for the benefit of the other person. As i teach myself daily that, when you bear a grudge against someone, it is almost as you carry that person around on your back with you. He drains you of your energy,enthusiasm and peace of mind.But the moment you forgive him you get him off your back and you can move on with rest of your life.
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) reported that the devil said to Allah (SWT)
" I shall continue continue to lead thy servants astray as long as their spirits are in their bodies"
and you can't imagine what ALLAH(SWT) replied
" (THEN) I SHALL CONTINUE TO PARDON THEM AS LONG AS THEY ASK FOR MY FORGIVENESS "
SUBHANALLAH
Forgiveness is a great act of spirit and personal courage. It is also one of the best ways to elevate the quality of your life. I have discovered that every minute you devote to thinking about someone who has wronged you is a minute you have stolen from a much worthier pursuit.
Let me share with you one of the saying of PROPHET MUHAMMAD (PBUH)
"MOST OF YOUR SINS ARE BECAUSE OF YOUR TONGUES"
