Tabrani reported on the authority of Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid Radi Allahu Anhu that Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam said,‘The Deeds of the people are presented
before Allah on a Monday and Thursday. He pardons all of them, except for those two people who harbor malice between each other, and that person who severs the bonds of kindness’.
The Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam said, ‘Do not be Ima’a (a self seeker), whereby you say, that if the people are kind towards me, then I shall be kind towards them and if they oppress me, then I too shall oppress them.
However, remain steadfast on this, that if people are kind to you, then you too should be kind and if they are cruel towards you, then you should not oppress them (i.e. cause them any harm).’ [Tirmizi]
