Sahih al-Bukhari 6786 (Book 86, Hadith 15) #6528
Choosing the Easier Option

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) always chose the easier option as long as it was not sinful, and he would take revenge for Allah's sake if His limits were transgressed.

Narrated Aisha: Whenever the Prophet was given an option between two things, he used to select the easier of the tow as long as it was not sinful; but if it was sinful, he would remain far from it. By Allah, he never took revenge for himself concerning any matter that was presented to him, but when Allah's Limits were transgressed, he would take revenge for Allah's Sake.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ مَا خُيِّرَ النَّبِيُّ بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ إِلاَّ اخْتَارَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا، مَا لَمْ يَأْثَمْ، فَإِذَا كَانَ الإِثْمُ كَانَ أَبْعَدَهُمَا مِنْهُ، وَاللَّهِ مَا انْتَقَمَ لِنَفْسِهِ فِي شَىْءٍ يُؤْتَى إِلَيْهِ قَطُّ، حَتَّى تُنْتَهَكَ حُرُمَاتُ اللَّهِ، فَيَنْتَقِمُ لِلَّهِ‏.‏

Additionally, if anyone transgresses Allah's limits, we should take revenge for Allah's sake. This means that we must stand up for justice and protect those who are wronged or oppressed by others. We must also be aware of our own actions and make sure to stay away from any kind of wrongdoing or sinning ourselves.
