[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never struck a servant or a woman with his hand, and he never struck anything with his hand except when striving in the cause of Allah. He never chose between two matters except that he chose the easier of the two, as long as it was not a sin. If it was a sinful matter, he was the furthest of people from it. He never sought revenge for himself in any matter unless the sanctities of Allah were violated, then he would take revenge on behalf of Allah.
مَا ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ خَادِمًا لَهُ قَطُّ وَلَا امْرَأَةً وَلَا ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ شَيْئًا قَطُّ إِلَّا أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَلَا خُيِّرَ بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ قَطُّ إِلَّا كَانَ أَحَبَّهُمَا إِلَيْهِ أَيْسَرُهُمَا حَتَّى يَكُونَ إِثْمًا فَإِذَا كَانَ إِثْمًا كَانَ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ مِنَ الْإِثْمِ وَلَا انْتَقَمَ لِنَفْسِهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ يُؤْتَى إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى تُنْتَهَكَ حُرُمَاتُ اللهِ ﷻ فَيَكُونَ هُوَ يَنْتَقِمُ لِلَّهِ ﷻ
