6126. Narrated 'Āishah رضي الله عنها: Whenever Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was given the choice of one of two matters, he would chose the easier of the two, as long as it was not sinful to do so, but if it was sinful, he would not approach it. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ never took revenge over anybody for his own sake but (he did) only when Allāh's Legal Laws and Bindings were outraged, in which case he would take revenge for Allāh's sake." [See Vol. 4, Hadīth No. 3560]

6126 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: «مَا خُيِّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ قَطُّ إِلَّا أَخَذَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا، مَا لَمْ يَكُنْ إِثْمًا، فَإِنْ كَانَ إِثْمًا كَانَ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ مِنْهُ، وَمَا انْتَقَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِنَفْسِهِ فِي شَيْءٍ قَطُّ، إِلَّا أَنْ تُنْتَهَكَ حُرْمَةُ اللَّهِ، فَيَنْتَقِمَ بِهَا لِلَّهِ»
