IT IS INCORRECT TO PUNISH ANYONE TO GRATIFY ONESELF

Hadhrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz (R.A) once had a drunkard arrested to face punishment. When the drunkard started to swear and abuse him, Hadhrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz (R.A) had him released.
When someone enquired about this, Hadhrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz (R.A) replied,
"I became angry when he began to swear me. If I had punished him in the condition of anger, the punishment would have been to appease myself. I do not like to have any Muslim punished merely to gratify myself."
