Abu Razin reported: A man came to Al-Fudayl ibn Bazwan, may Allah have mercy on him, and he said, “Indeed, a man has slandered you!” Al-Fudayl said, “Verily, I will infuriate the one who commanded him! May Allah forgive me and forgive him.” It was said, “Who has commanded him?” Al-Fudayl said, “Satan.” Ibn Farafisah said, “Whoever seeks forgiveness for his oppressor has defeated Satan.”

عَنْ أَبِي رَزِينٍ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى الْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ بَزْوَانَ رحمه الله فَقَالَ إِنَّ فُلانًا يَقَعُ فِيكَ فَقَالَ لِأُغِيظَنَّ مَنْ أَمَرَهُ يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لِي وَلَهُ قِيلَ مَنْ أَمَرَهُ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ وقال بن فرافصة وَمَنِ اسْتَغْفَرَ لِظَالِمِهِ فَقَدْ هَزَمَ الشَّيْطَانَ
