Repelling the Evil With That Which is Best

Repel evil with that which is better. We are Best-Acquainted with the things they utter.

These will be given their reward twice over, because they are patient, and repel evil with good, and spend (in charity) out of what We have provided them.

The good deed and the evil deed cannot be equal. Repel (the evil) with one which is better (i.e. Allâh ordered the faithful believers to be patient at the time of anger, and to excuse those who treat them badly), then verily! he, between whom and you there was enmity, (will become) as though he was a close friend.
