However, if any of the limits of Allah Ta\u2018ala were violated, Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) would become extremely angry on account of that. Whenever Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) was given a choice between two options, he always chose the easier option, provided it (the option he chose) was not a sin.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Commentary:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the Ahaadith, occasions are recorded where Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) took revenge from kuffaar and even Muslims. Among these occasions was the occasion of the conquest of Makkah. When Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) conquered Makkah Mukarramah, he announced general forgiveness for one and all, including those who were the arch enemies of Islam. However, he excluded a few kuffaar from the general pardon and instructed that they be put to the sword. This retribution was in lieu of the many atrocities and killings which they were responsible for. In other words, Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) took revenge for the sake of Allah Ta\u2018ala\u2019s Deen, and not for his personal self.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, it is reported that at the conquest of Khaybar, Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) was poisoned by a Jewess. Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) initially did not take any revenge from her. It was only after a Sahaabi who had partook of the poisoned meal passed away that Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) gave the command for her to be killed in retribution. In this case also, Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) took revenge on behalf of the Deen of Allah Ta\u2018ala as the woman was responsible for killing a person.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, in certain Ahaadith, it is reported that Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) commanded that corporal punishment be carried out against certain Muslims for certain crimes that they had committed against other Muslims or even non-Muslims.<\/p>\n<p>In the last portion of this Hadith, it is mentioned that when Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) was given a choice by Allah Ta\u2018ala between two options, whether in deeni or worldly matters, he always chose the easy and simple option. The reason for this was that Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) was the most merciful and compassionate of Allah Ta\u2018ala\u2019s servants. Hence, he always chose the path of ease for his ummah and for mankind at large. This sublime and noble quality was in actual fact a manifestation of the supreme kindness and divine compassion which Allah Ta\u2018ala shows to His servants. In regard to the laws of Shari\u2019ah, Allah Ta\u2018ala declares,<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" dir=\"RTL\" style=\"text-align: center; font-family: 'Traditional Arabic'; font-size: 16pt;\">\u064a\u064f\u0631\u064a\u062f\u064f \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u064e\u0640\u0647\u064f \u0628\u0650\u0643\u064f\u0645\u064f \u0627\u0644\u064a\u064f\u0633\u0631\u064e \u0648\u064e\u0644\u0627 \u064a\u064f\u0631\u064a\u062f\u064f \u0628\u0650\u0643\u064f\u0645\u064f \u0627\u0644\u0639\u064f\u0633\u0631\u064e<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Allah Ta\u2018ala intends ease for you and He does not intend to put you in difficulty<\/em><\/p>\n<p>However, together with Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) choosing the easy option, he ensured that the option was not one of sin or one which violated any Shar\u2019ee law as this would result in disobeying Allah Ta\u2018ala.
