Continuation of the explanation of the author's statement: "And you pardon the one who wronged you"

The Shaykh : In the morning, and he goes and tramples on someone. When the day ends, this is not mercy. Mercy is that you take your right and the public right, so that he thinks a thousand times before he commits the crime, is that not so? Therefore, we see that prioritizing emotion over reason and what the Shari'ah requires is a great error. Because some people are overcome by irrational compassion and mercy, so they pardon the criminal no matter how criminal he is. But this must be tied to what? To reason and what the Shari'ah requires. The Shari'ah does not come except with what reason approves of. The Shari'ah, Allah the Exalted says: As for the one who pardons and rewards his pardon with good, he has no reward, but rather he bears a burden. Good.
