FORGIVENESS

37

“A prophet had been beaten and injured so severely by his people that he had to wipe away the blood from his face. As he did this he supplicated saying, 'Allah, forgive my people, because they do not understand.'”

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abdullah son of Mas'ud who related that he remembered it, exactly as if he was looking at the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him.
