0:04 Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said:
0:07 “And those who, when they do an evil thing or wrong themselves, remember Allah and implore forgiveness for their sins - Who forgiveth sins save Allah only? - and will not knowingly repeat (the wrong) they did.” (3:135)
0:23 “And those who, when they do an evil thing or wrong themselves, remember Allah and implore forgiveness for their sins - Who forgiveth sins save Allah only? - and will not knowingly repeat (the wrong) they did.” (3:135)
0:36 And on the authority of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), he said:
0:41 I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say:
0:46 "There is no servant who commits a sin, then performs ablution thoroughly,
0:50 then stands and prays two rak'ahs, and then seeks forgiveness from Allah, except that Allah forgives him."
0:58 Then he recited this verse:
1:01 “And those who, when they do an evil thing or wrong themselves, remember Allah and implore forgiveness for their sins - Who forgiveth sins save Allah only? - and will not knowingly repeat (the wrong) they did.” (3:135)
1:10 to the end of the verse.
1:12 Narrated by Abu Dawud.
1:15 A point of benefit:
1:17 Dirt and stains on a white garment
1:20 strip away its luster and beauty,
1:23 which is why its owner hastens to wash it with water and soap,
1:28 eager to keep it clean.
1:30 Sins are the dirt of the hearts,
1:33 and their washing is seeking forgiveness.
1:35 If only we would adhere to it so that our hearts become pure,
1:40 receptive to hearing good,
1:42 and ready to act upon it.
1:46 And on the authority of Muhammad Ibn Wasi', he said:
1:49 "Sin upon sin
1:51 deadens the heart."
