وَلَا تَسْتَوِی الْحَسَنَةُ وَلَا السَّیِّئَةُؕ اِدْفَعْ بِالَّتٖی هِیَ اَحْسَنُ فَاِذَا الَّذٖی بَیْنَكَ وَبَیْنَهُ عَدَاوَةٌ كَاَنَّهُ وَلِیٌّ حَمٖیمٌ

Wala tastawee alhasanatu wala alssayyiatu idfaAA biallatee hiya ahsanu faitha allathee baynaka wabaynahu AAadawatun kaannahu waliyyun hameemun

Translations

And not equal are the good deed and the bad. Repel [evil] by that [deed] which is better; and thereupon the one whom between you and him is enmity [will become] as though he was a devoted friend

Saheeh International

The good deed and the evil deed are not alike. Repel the evil deed with one which is better, then lo! he, between whom and thee there was enmity (will become) as though he was a bosom friend
