[Machine] I have never seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ striking a servant nor hitting anything with his hand except when he was striving in the cause of Allah. He never sought revenge for himself, unless there was a violation against the sanctity of Allah. When it was for the sake of Allah, He would take revenge on his behalf. He did not react to any matter except by choosing the easiest option, as long as it did not involve any sin. And when it became sinful, he stayed away from it more than anyone else.
مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ضَرَبَ خَادِمًا قَطُّ وَلَا ضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ شَيْئًا قَطُّ إِلَّا أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَلَا نِيلَ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ قَطُّ فَيَنْتَقِمَهُ مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ لِلَّهِ فَإِذَا كَانَ لِلَّهِ انْتَقَمَ مِنْهُ وَلَا عَرَضَ لَهُ أَمْرَانِ إِلَّا أَخَذَ الَّذِي هُوَ أَيْسَرَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ إِثْمًا فَإِذَا كَانَ إِثْمًا كَانَ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ مِنْهُ
