Jami at-Tirmidhi 3004 (Book 47, Hadith 56) #28653
The Mercy of Allah in Response to Prophet Muhammad's Request

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) asking Allah to curse some of his enemies on the day of Uhud, and Allah responding with a verse from the Quran that it is not for him to decide whether they should be punished or forgiven.

Narrated Salim bin 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: from his father: "On the Day of Uhud, the Messenger of Allah said: 'O Allah! Curse Abu Sufyan! O Allah! Curse Al-Harith bin Hisham! O Allah! Curse Safwan bin Umayyah!' He said: 'So the following was revealed: Not for you is the decision; whether He turns in mercy towards them or punishes them (3:128)'. So Allah turned in mercy towards them, they accepted Islam and their (adherence to) Islam was good".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو السَّائِبِ، سَلْمُ بْنُ جُنَادَةَ بْنِ سَلْمٍ الْكُوفِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنِ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ ‏:‏ ‏(‏لَيْسَ لَكَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ شَيْءٌ أَوْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَوْ يُعَذِّبَهُمْ ‏)‏ فَتَابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَأَسْلَمُوا فَحَسُنَ إِسْلاَمُهُمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ. غَرِيبٌ يُسْتَغْرَبُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عُمَرَ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ لَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عُمَرَ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ وَعَرَفَهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الزُّهْرِيِّ

QUICK LESSONS:
Put your trust in God; Leave decisions up to Him; Be patient when faced with adversity.

EXPLANATIONS:
On the day of Uhud, which was a battle between Muslims and non-Muslims, Prophet Muhammad asked Allah to curse some of his enemies. In response, Allah revealed a verse from the Quran that it is not for him to decide whether they should be punished or forgiven. This teaches us that even though we may feel anger towards someone who has wronged us, we must leave it up to God as He knows best what will happen in each situation. We must also remember that God is merciful and forgiving and can turn any situation around if we put our trust in Him.
