Once, a person was verbally abusing Abu Bakr (RA) while the Prophet (peace be upon him) was curiously watching with a smile. After taking much abuse quietly, Abu Bakr responded to a few of his comments. At this, the Prophet exhibited his disapproval, got up and left. Abu Bakr caught up with the Prophet and wondered, 'O Messenger of Allaah, he was abusing me and you remained ......sitting. When I responded to him, you disapproved and got up.' The Messenger of Allaah responded,

'There was an angel with you responding to him. When you responded to him, Shaytaan took his place.'

He then said,

'O Abu Bakr, there are three solid truths:

If a person is wronged and he forbears it (without seeking revenge) just for the sake of Allaah (SWT), Allaah will honour him and give him the upper hand with His help; if a person opens a door of giving gifts for cementing relationships with relatives, Allaah will give him abundance; and, if a person opens a door of seeking charity for himself to increase his wealth, Allaah will further reduce his wealth.' - [Reported from Abu Hurairah in Mishkaah and Musnad Ahmad]

“The fact that our heart cannot let go of things–despite the countless arguments our mind makes, despite the utter foolishness of the attachment, despite the impossible nature of the heart’s wish–is a humbling reminder that we are not in control of our own hearts; Allah is.”
