Question:
How is it possible to reconcile seeing a wrong and taking revenge for Allah with forbidding it through wisdom, gentleness, and good admonition?
Answer:
One forbids it through wisdom, and this is part of anger for Allah: [Surat al-Nahl: 125]. One does not remain silent. However, if the wrong is against oneself, there is no harm in forgiving and remaining silent.

ادْعُ إِلَى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ وَجَادِلْهُمْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ
