INNA LAAHA MA'A SWAABIRIN
A ROLE MODEL
SALAM. THE PREACHER OF GOD’S WORD WISHES PEOPLE WELL, NO MATTER HOW THEY TREAT HIM. The Prophet besieged Taif for more than twenty days. When it became difficult for the Muslims to continue with the siege, he ordered them towithdraw. It was then suggested that the Prophet bring down a curse upon the heads of the Thaqeef tribe, but the Prophet merely raised both hands and prayed: “Lord, guide the Thaqeef, and bring them into the fold of Islam.” The Prophet was likewise told of the contumacy and disbelief of the Daus tribe, and again it was suggested that he should invoke a curse upon them, but theProphet’s response was again to pray. “Lord, guide the Daus,” he begged, “and bring them into the fold of the faithful.”

Re: A ROLE MODEL
Very very good lessons to learn from these actions that the Prophet (pbuh) took.
Ultimately, it is better to give people a chance to repent from their evil rather than annihilate them. This is for the simple reason that after death, one's chance to repent is totally lost. However, in certain circumstances, where their actions are influencing or might influence others into evil, then destruction might be justified, and Allah did this Himself with the people of Ad, Thamud, Nuh, Lut, etc. to serve as a deterrent to surrounding nations and subsequent generations.
Ultimately again, that decision rests with Allah ALONE.
No single individual or group of people should today take it upon themselves to try to destroy others because their way of life is against what Allah wants.
Allah Almighty knows best!
