Narrated `Aisha:Whenever Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was given the choice of one of two matters, he would choose the easier of the two, as long as it was not sinful to do so, but if it was sinful to do so, he would not approach it. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) never took revenge (over anybody) for his own sake but (he did) only when Allah's Legal Bindings were outraged in which case he would take revenge for Allah's Sake

حدثنا عبد الله بن يوسف، اخبرنا مالك، عن ابن شهاب، عن عروة بن الزبير، عن عايشة رضى الله عنها انها قالت ما خير رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بين امرين الا اخذ ايسرهما، ما لم يكن اثما، فان كان اثما كان ابعد الناس منه، وما انتقم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لنفسه، الا ان تنتهك حرمة الله فينتقم لله بها
