Asalaamu alikum to all,
You are true on what you said about forgiveness to others if we have transgressed them athena. We should never be angry for what is said about us just as our Prophet(SAW) did. We all know the hardships he faced and never became angry for what was done to him. The only time we must be angry and this should be done in the best way possible is when Allah(SWT) is slandered, our Deen is slandered, and when our Prophet(SAW) is slandered. If we do not speak up and tell the truth to the people that do these things we will be accountable for this on the Last Day. This is a right that Allah(SWT) has on us and it must be upheld. I am sure we all know of the times when our Prophet(SAW) became angry for such things and we should use this as an example for us.
Wa salaam,
Ahmed
