3:159
فَ بِ مَا رَحْمَةٍ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ لِن تَ لَ هُمْ وَ لَوْ كُن تَ فَظًّا غَلِيظَ ٱلْ قَلْبِ لَ ٱنفَضُّ وا۟ مِنْ حَوْلِ كَ فَ ٱعْفُ عَنْ هُمْ وَ ٱسْتَغْفِرْ لَ هُمْ وَ شَاوِرْ هُمْ فِى ٱلْ أَمْرِ فَ إِذَا عَزَمْ تَ فَ تَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْ مُتَوَكِّلِينَ
So by mercy from Allah, [O Muhammad], you were lenient with them. And if you had been rude [in speech] and harsh in heart, they would have disbanded from about you. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and consult them in the matter. And when you have decided, then rely upon Allah. Indeed, Allah loves those who rely [upon Him].
