Surah Al-Baqarah (The Cow), Verse 263

قَوْلٌ مَّعْرُوْفٌ وَّمَغْفِرَةٌ خَیْرٌ مِّنْ صَدَقَةٍ یَّتْبَعُهَاۤ اَذًی وَاللّٰهُ غَنِیٌّ حَلِیْمٌ ۟

Qawlum ma'roofunw wa maghfiratun khairum min sadaqatiny yatba'uhaaa azaa; wallaahu Ghaniyyun Haleem

Kind words and the covering of faults are better than charity followed by injury. Allah is free of all wants, and He is Most-Forbearing.
