Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) forgiving the people of Taif

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Our Nabi Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) made dua for the people of Taif regardless of their behaviour towards him. But he made bad dua for the king who tore his letter. This is how sometimes he showed mercy and sometimes gave la’nat. Why is it? And why is it higlighted only that he forgave the people of Taif and not the la’nat he gave to that king or the people who used to put garbage on his back during his prayer. Why didn’t he forgive them? What should I learn from this?

Bismillaah

A: Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) had acted as per the command of Allah Ta`ala.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Assalamu alaikum I am becoming in despair daily now, since my calamity has befallen me 2months ago. I daily supplicate and make duaa to Allah, in sajdah, raising my hand, on Friday prayer after adhan, in Tahajjud prayer yet my calamity keeps on worsening over time. I do know that Allah will answer your duaa in either three ways. 1.Either he will grant you on what the believer supplicated for ,  2. or the duaa will be answered/reward in the Hereafter, 3. or something bad will be prevented from him equal to the value of his Dua. I am unfortunatly becoming despair now because my situation is worsning and I fear for my Imman now as I daily get very negative thoughts now. What can I to be hopefull. Please make duaa for me that Allah will relieve me from my calmity and reward me for my loss and patience.   Jazaku Allah Khair
