[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never struck any of his wives, nor did he ever strike a servant, nor did he ever strike anything with his right hand, except when fighting in the cause of Allah. And he did not seek revenge for himself unless the limits of Allah were violated, then he sought revenge for it. And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was never given the choice between two matters, one of which was easier than the other, except that he chose the easier one, unless it was a sin. If it was a sin, then he was the furthest of people from it.
مَا ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَحَدًا مِنْ نِسَائِهِ قَطُّ وَلَا ضَرَبَ خَادِمًا قَطُّ وَلَا ضَرَبَ شَيْئًا بِيَمِينِهِ قَطُّ إِلَّا أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَمَا نِيلَ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ قَطُّ فَانْتَقَمَ لِنَفْسِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ تُنْتَهَكَ مَحَارِمُ اللهِ فَيَنْتَقِمُ لَهَا وَمَا خُيِّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ قَطُّ أَحَدُهُمَا أَيْسَرُ مِنَ الآخَرِ إِلَّا اخْتَارَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ إِثْمًا فَإِذَا كَانَ إِثْمًا كَانَ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ مِنْهُ
