Sunan an-Nasai 4885 (Book 46, Hadith 16) #19418
Forgiveness and Pardon in the Face of Crime

SUMMARY: The Prophet encourages people to forgive and pardon those who have committed a crime that deserves a Hadd punishment.

It was narrated form 'Amr bin Shu'ainb, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Prophet said: "Pardon matters that may deserve a Hadd punishment before you bring it to my attention, for whatever is brought to my attention, the Hadd punishment becomes binding". (Saif)
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ تَعَافَوُا الْحُدُودَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتُونِي بِهِ فَمَا أَتَانِي مِنْ حَدٍّ فَقَدْ وَجَبَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith encourages people to forgive and pardon those who have committed a crime that deserves a hadd punishment. It is important for us to remember that we should always try our best to forgive others before bringing any matter of wrongdoing or crime up with the Prophet. If we do not take this approach then the hadd punishments become binding upon them. This teaches us an important lesson about forgiveness and mercy as these are two qualities which are highly praised in Islam. We should strive to be forgiving towards others even if they have wronged us in some way as this will help us build strong relationships with one another based on mutual respect and understanding.
