“When someone hurts you or harms you, even if it is a deep wound, forgive them. Forgive them NOT for their sake, but as a sign of gratitude to Allah. Why you ask? For making you the victim and not the oppressor. There is no crime in being a victim, rather it brings you closer to Allah and rids you of sins. But as for the oppressor, they'll have to face their Lord one day. So in reality, they are their own greatest victims.” IfsRealityFacesAsksHurtSinLordCrimeGratitudeOne DayVictimForgivingSakeHarmWoundsMuslimOppressorsDeep Wounds Author:Suhaib Webb
