The question

Is it correct and more probable to say that the meaning of "yattaqassoon" in "the Bridge" is "they forgive one another out of pardon"? And will Allah forgive those who wronged me without avenging me or granting me retribution? And does this forgiveness add good deeds to the wronged and raise their ranks?

The answer

Retribution on the Day of Judgment will occur in two places: The first is before the Sirat (Bridge), and it will be through good deeds and bad deeds. The wronged person will be given from the good deeds of the oppressor. If the oppressor's good deeds are exhausted, then some of the wronged person's bad deeds will be taken and cast upon the oppressor. The second is after the Sirat, and it is to remove hatred and malice from the souls of believers before entering Paradise. In this instance, grievances may be compensated, or forgiveness may be instilled in hearts.
