it was by the mercy of allah that thou wast lenient with them for if thou hadst been stern and fierce of heart they would have dispersed from round about thee. so pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and consult with them upon the conduct of affairs. and when thou art resolved then put thy trust in allah. lo! allah loveth those who put their trust .
فبما رحمة من الله لنت لهم ولو كنت فظا غليظ القلب لانفضوا من حولك فاعف عنهم واستغفر لهم وشاورهم في الأمر فإذا عزمت فتوكل على الله إن الله يحب المتوكلين
