Ali 'Imran 3:159 فبما رحمة من الله لنت لهم ولو كنت فظا غليظ القلب لانفضوا من حولك فاعف عنهم واستغفر لهم وشاورهم في الامر فاذا عزمت فتوكل على الله ان الله يحب المتوكلين ١٥٩
فَبِمَا
رَحۡمَةٖ
مِّنَ
ٱللَّهِ
لِنتَ
لَهُمۡۖ
وَلَوۡ
كُنتَ
فَظًّا
غَلِيظَ
ٱلۡقَلۡبِ
لَٱنفَضُّواْ
مِنۡ
حَوۡلِكَۖ
فَٱعۡفُ
عَنۡهُمۡ
وَٱسۡتَغۡفِرۡ
لَهُمۡ
وَشَاوِرۡهُمۡ
فِي
ٱلۡأَمۡرِۖ
فَإِذَا
عَزَمۡتَ
فَتَوَكَّلۡ
عَلَى
ٱللَّهِۚ
إِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
يُحِبُّ
ٱلۡمُتَوَكِّلِينَ
١٥٩
By an act of mercy from God, you [Prophet] were gentle in your dealings with them- had you been harsh, or hard-hearted, they would have dispersed and left you- so pardon them and ask forgiveness for them. Consult with them about matters, then, when you have decided on a course of action, put your trust in God: God loves those who put their trust in Him.
