Prophet Mihammad Beautiful qualities: Forgiveness

One of the geet qualities of the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is that he never return evil for evil. He never took revenge on his own behalf on anyone , but always forgive and pardon.

All muslims know the situation when he came back to Mecca with the muslims army of 10,000. Muslims this day return to Makka victorious with no war and anyone of muslims or unbelievers was killed, and Muhammad didn't take any revenge on his enemy Abu Sufyanany or one from those who rebuked and beat him and killed many muslims. he just said that day:

"I say to you what Joseph said to his brothers: ‘There is no blame upon you.’ Go! For you all free!."

A second situation, when Prophet Muhammad go to city of Taif to invite them to Islam, they throw stone towards him, Allah then sent the angel of mountains, seeking the permission of the Prophet to join together the two hills and crush the city of Taif, between which it was located. Out of his great tolerance, mercy and forgiveness, the Messenger of God replied, “No! For, I hope that God will bring forth from their loins people who will worship God alone, associating nothing with Him.” (Saheeh Muslim)

Also, Anas reported that a Jewess came to Allah's Messenger (pbuh) with poisoned mutton and he took of that what had been brought to him (Allah's Messenger). When the effect of this poison were felt by him he called for her and asked her about that, whereupon she said: I had determined to kill you. Thereupon he said: Allah will never give you the power to do it. He (the narrator) said that they (the Companion's of the Holy Prophet) said: Should we not kill her? He said: No. He (Anas) said: I felt (the affects of this poison) on the uvula of Allah's Messenger.
