Hasten to Forgiveness 🌿

Shaykh Al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah [رحمه الله] said: ❝Sins and transgressions not only cause the Muslims to become weak, but they also cause the Muslims to be overpowered by their enemies.❞ [Al-Istiqamah, (1/466)] Ponder #KnowYourRabb #KnowYourPurpose #YouAreAccountableForTheSufferingOfTheUmmah

Ibn Rajab رحمه الله said: "If the slave of Allāh prefects his Tawheed and his sincerity for Allāh and he establishes/fulfils all its conditions with his heart, and his tongue and his limbs then forgiveness for his past sins becomes obligatory."

Shaykh Khâlid al-Hâyik said: Hanbal said: Abû ‘Abdillâh narrated to me that he said: Zayd ibn Hubâb narrated to us that he said: ‘Alî ibn Mas’adah narrated to me, from Qatâdah, from Anas, that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: “Every son of Âdam sins, and the best of sinners are those who repent.” Abû ‘Abdillâh Ahmad ibn Hanbal said: “This Hadîth is rejected.” I [al-Hâyik] say: Its origin is from the Isrâ’îliyyât. [END QUOTE] BENEFIT: This hadîth was also rejected by at-Tirmidhî and al-Bayhaqî, and it was weakened by ibn ‘Adî, ibn Hibbân, ibn al-Qaysarânî, Sulaymân al-‘Alwân, Abû ‘Alî al-Hasanî, Mustafâ al-‘Adawî and others.

Magnitude of His Forgiveness ✨ 'Abd Al-Malik ibn Marwān (d.86H), gave a touching sermon one day. He stopped midway and began to weep, saying: يا رب إن ذنوبي عظيمة، وإن قليل عفوك أعظم منها، فامح بقليل عفوك عظيم ذنوبي "O Rabb, my sins are immense and yet a speck of your forgiveness is truly greater, so erase with a speck of your forgiveness the greatness of my sins." When Al-Hasan al-Basrī was informed of these words, he too wept and said: لو كان كلام يكتب بالذهب لكتبت هذا "If words could be written in gold, I would write this." • تهذيب التهذيب (6/374)
