Hadith on expiation of sins

 


Abu Huraira (RA) reported: Messenger (SAW) said, “ The five (daily) salat , and from one Jumuah prayer to the (next) Jumuah prayer, and from Ramadan to Ramadan are expiations for the sins committed in between their intervals , provided the major sins are not committed.”


-Muslim


If a Muslim saves himselves from major sins and does not neglect his obligations to people then he remains free from sins by means of Ibada (worship) stated above .

Today's Reflection [Ayah 45-46, Surah Al-Baqarah]

  وَاسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَاةِ ۚ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلَّا عَلَى الْخَاشِعِينَ And seek help through patience and prayer. But it is difficult, except for the devout. (Quran 45:2)   الَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُمْ مُلَاقُو رَبِّهِمْ وَأَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ Those who know that they will meet their Lord, and that to Him they will return.( Quran 46:2) The purpose of this directive is to urge man to develop this quality and to reinforce it from the outside by means of Prayer.  Allah commanded His servants to use patience and prayer to acquire the good of this life and the Hereafter.  The companion  of our Rasool , Umar  i bn Al-Khattab said,  "There are two types of patience: good patience when the disaster strikes, and a better patience while avoiding the prohibitions of Allah." Man saves much treasures for himself, but he does not contemplate that the best treasure he can have for himself is prayer and patience. We search for help in...

Today's Reflection (Ayah 58-59, Surah Al-Baqarah)

    وَ إِذْ قُلْنَا ادْخُلُوا هَٰذِهِ الْقَرْيَةَ فَكُلُوا مِنْهَا حَيْثُ شِئْتُمْ رَغَدًا وَادْخُلُوا الْبَابَ سُجَّدًا وَقُولُوا حِطَّةٌ نَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ خَطَايَاكُمْ ۚ وَسَنَزِيدُ الْمُحْسِنِينَ And recall that We said, “Enter this town, and eat plentifully from it whatever you wish; but enter the gate humbly, and say, 'Pardon.' We will forgive your sins, and give increase to the virtuous.” (Quran 2:58) فَبَدَّلَ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا قَوْلًا غَيْرَ الَّذِي قِيلَ لَهُمْ فَأَنْزَلْنَا عَلَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا رِجْزًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ بِمَا كَانُوا يَفْسُقُونَ But the wrongdoers among them substituted words other than those given to them, so We sent down on the wrongdoers a plague from heaven, because of their wicked behavior. (Quran 2:59) Allah says in this ayah and remember when I commanded you (the people of Bani Israel) to go to this town, eat and drink in it freely and enter it with sujood (prostration), humbling yourselves and seek forgiveness. Here the word used for seekin...

And of His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, so that you may find tranquility in them; and He planted love and compassion between you. In this are signs for people who reflect.

  وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا لِتَسْكُنُوا إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُمْ مَوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ. ( Quran 30:21) And of His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, so that you may find tranquility in them; and He planted love and compassion between you. In this are signs for people who reflect. From this beautiful ayah we learn that it is Allah who puts love and mercy between the hearts of any 2 people. If you are in a situation where you cant seem to gain the other person's love , affection or mercy, then this ayah is for you. to comfort your soul. It is vital to remember that even if tried everything in the dunya to win another person's heart, we cannot until Allah puts mercy and love in their hearts for us. For people who reflect will realise that 2 people who dont know eachother and perhaps have massive differences in their characters and also are complete opposites o...
