Hadith: Verily, lenience is not found in anything but it adorns it, and it is not removed from anything but it makes it defective
عن عائشة رضي الله عنها زوج النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:
«إِنَّ الرِّفْقَ لَا يَكُونُ فِي شَيْءٍ إِلَّا زَانَهُ، وَلَا يُنْزَعُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا شَانَهُ».
[صحيح] - [رواه مسلم] - [صحيح مسلم: 2594]

‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), the Prophet's wife, reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"Verily, lenience is not found in anything but it adorns it, and it is not removed from anything but it makes it defective."
[Authentic hadith] - [Narrated by Muslim] - [Sahih Muslim - 2594]
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that lenience, mildness, and deliberateness in speech and behavior add beauty and excellence to things, making it easier for a person to fulfill his needs.
That lack of lenience makes things defective and unpleasant, which prevents a person from reaching his goal or reaching it with difficulty.
