Abū Ḥātim (Ibn Ḥibbān) said,

"An apology removes grief, clears away sadness, pushes back hatred and does away with aversion. Lack of apologies will cause great crimes to be committed and many sins will result (but on the other hand), apologizing too much leads one to be accused and thought badly of. If there was to be no praiseworthy quality in the person who apologizes to his brother other than humility and removal of ʻujb (self-amazement), then it would've been befitting/mandatory for the wise one to apologize for every slip he makes."
