'On the day of the conquest [of Makkah], when. the Prophet (SAWA) entered Makkah, he sent for Safwan b. Umayya, Abu Sufyan b. Harb and Harith b. Hisham. ['Umar said], 'I said, 'Allah has placed them in our grip, and I will make them taste the consequences of what they have done.' The Prophet (SAWA), however, said, my stance with you is as the stance that Joseph took with his brothers when he said to them, There shall be no reproach on you today. Allah will forgive you, and He is the most merciful of the merciful. ['Umar narrated], 'I turned away from the Prophet (SAWA) in shame and disgust at what had escaped from my mouth. And the Prophet (SAWA) said to them what he had to say.'
