Apologizing for Offenses

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him) to apologize if he had offended anyone, as it is displeasing to Allah.

'Aidh bin 'Amr Al-Muzani (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Abu Sufyan passed by Salman, Suhaib and Bilal and some other Companions (May Allah be pleased with them). They said to him: "Did not the swords of Allah exact their due from the foes of Allah?" Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him) said to them: "Do you speak like this to the chief of the Quraish and their master?" Then he went to the Prophet and related this to him. He said, "Abu Bakr, perhaps you have angered them. If so, you have angered your Rabb". Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him) went back to them and said: "Brothers, did I offend you?" They replied: "No. May Allah forgive you, brother". Muslim.
وعن أبي هبيرة عائذ بن عمرو المزني وهو من أهل بيعة الرضوان رضي الله عنه، أن أبا سفيان أتى على سلمان وصهيب وبلال في نفر فقالوا‏:‏ ما أخذت سيوف الله من عدو الله مأخذها، فقال أبو بكر رضي الله عنه‏:‏ أتقولون هذا لشيخ قريش وسيدهم‏؟‏ فأتى النبي ، فأخبره فقال‏:‏ ‏ "‏يا أبا بكر لعلك أغضبتهم‏؟‏ لئن كنت أغضبتهم لقد أغضبت ربك‏"‏ فأتاهم فقال‏:‏ ياإخوتاه أغضبتكم‏؟‏ قالوا‏:‏ لا، يغفر الله لك يا أخي‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
