If we want Allah to forgive us, we should be forgiving of others and willing to overlook their wrongs. This is part of what it means to be good to others. Allah describes his believing servants as "those who restrain their anger and are pardoning towards people.” He then says: "Indeed, Allah loves those who do good.” [Sūrah Āl `Imrān: 134]
