The Lofty Virtue of Not Responding to Personal Transgressions in Some Situations

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Ever Merciful…

Shaykh Dr. Mohammad bin Ghalib al-Omari (may Allah bless and preserve him) stated the following in a recent tweet:

Your silence about some people’s transgressions against you is not necessarily weakness or incapability, nor is it proof of the oppressor’s truthfulness. Rather, in many occasions, it is actually proof of your beautiful patience, good understanding, and how distant you are from desiring controversy. Lots of words do not indicate strength in proofs, as some people talk a lot, but they are not actually saying anything.
