What are the sayings and remembrances (dhikr) that bring comfort to the soul and peace to the heart when recalling past injustices, or when seeing the one who wronged me, especially after being accused of theft in high school and the resulting psychological pain and the continued circulation of the story among people?

What happened was an injustice, and you must be patient and fear Allah. The wronged, patient, and pious person is promised victory and honor, as narrated in the story of Yusuf (peace be upon him), and in the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "No servant is wronged and endures it with patience except that Allah increases him in honor." A righteous woman was accused of adultery and theft, and she remained patient. There are no specific dhikrs for those who have wronged you, but there are supplications to ward off the evil of the oppressor. We advise you to forgive those who wronged you, for there is much good in it, and forgiveness increases a servant in honor. What you mentioned about people continuously talking about the accusation is most likely untrue, and if it is true, then defend yourself against this false accusation.
