Quotes About Forgiving People’s Wrongs

“When you finally realize that nothing is permanent in this life, you will become more tolerant, more forgiving and less judgmental.

Mufti Ismail Menk

“Truly spiritual people are more forgiving of others. They are able to forgive the weaknesses in others, because spirituality teaches you to see your own.

Yasmin Mogahed

“‎The ability to readily forgive should be driven by an awareness of our own flaws and mistakes towards others. But most of all, our humility should be driven by the fact that we wrong Allah every single day of our lives, when we sin. Who are we compared to Allah? And yet, Allah, Master of the universe, forgives by day and by night. Who are we to withhold forgiveness? If we hope to be forgiven by Allah, how can we not forgive others? It is for this reason that the Prophet ﷺ teaches us: “Those who show no mercy to others will have no mercy shown to them by Allah.” [Muslim]

Yasmin Mogahed

“Forgive others not because they deserve it, but because you deserve some peace of mind and desire the forgiveness of your Lord.

Abdulbary Yahya

“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.

Suhaib Webb

Yasmin Mogahed

“You refuse to forgive people, and yet on the Day of Judgment you will stand bare, begging Allah to forgive you.

Yasmin Mogahed

“Forgiving someone who has wronged you won't make yesterday's pain disappear, but it will allow tomorrow's happiness to grow.

Yasir Qadhi

“Forgiveness is how we fully recover from an injury someone else inflicts upon us.

Yasir Qadhi
