حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ مَا خُيِّرَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ إِلاَّ اخْتَارَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا، مَا لَمْ يَأْثَمْ، فَإِذَا كَانَ الإِثْمُ كَانَ أَبْعَدَهُمَا مِنْهُ، وَاللَّهِ مَا انْتَقَمَ لِنَفْسِهِ فِي شَىْءٍ يُؤْتَى إِلَيْهِ قَطُّ، حَتَّى تُنْتَهَكَ حُرُمَاتُ اللَّهِ، فَيَنْتَقِمُ لِلَّهِ.

Narrator: Aisha

English translation
Narrated Aisha: Whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) was given an option between two things, he used to select the easier of the tow as long as it was not sinful; but if it was sinful, he would remain far from it. By Allah, he never took revenge for himself concerning any matter that was presented to him, but when Allah's Limits were transgressed, he would take revenge for Allah's Sake
বাংলা অনুবাদ
‘আয়িশাহ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম কে যখনই (আল্লাহর নিকট থেকে) দু’টো কাজের মধ্যে একটিকে বেছে নেয়ার সুযোগ দেয়া হত, তখন তিনি দু’টোর সহজটি বেছে নিতেন, যতক্ষণ না সেটা গুনাহর কাজ হত। যদি সেটা গুনাহর কাজ হত তাহলে তিনি তাত্থেকে বহু দূরে থাকতেন। আল্লাহর কসম! তিনি কখনও তাঁর ব্যক্তিগত কারণে কোন কিছুর প্রতিশোধ গ্রহণ করেননি, যতক্ষণ না আল্লাহর হারামসমূহকে ছিন্ন করা হত। সেক্ষেত্রে আল্লাহর জন্য তিনি প্রতিশোধ নিতেন। [৩৫৬০] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনী- ৬৩১৭, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন)
