An episode in our history mentions that Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him, was fighting against someone who transgressed against him. At the moment when he overcame his opponent and was about to strike him, the man spat in his face. 
Imam Ali paused momentarily and then walked away from the situation. He did not do anything to his opponent. When he was asked why he said “Up until the point he spat in my face I was fighting him for the sake of God.
When he spat I feared that I would kill him out of anger and selfishness for what he had done to me.”
