The Forgiveness of Allah ﷻ

As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa RaḥmatuLlāhi wa Barakātuh. A‘ūdhu BiLlāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. BismiLlāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn.

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

“Inna Allāha Yaghfiru Adh-Dhunūba Jamī`āan, ‘Innahu Huwa Al-Ghafūru ArRaĥīm”, “Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful.” (Qur’ān 39:53). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla loves forgiving. He ﷻ gives people a chance at every opportunity so that they repent and ask for forgiveness in order to forgive their sins out of His ﷻ Mercy. It is the attribute of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Most Merciful and Most Forgiving are the attributes of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. With these attributes, Allah ‘Azza waJalla gives a chance every day and every moment so that people ask for forgiveness.

It is a great blessing for mankind; for Muslims and all people. Because some other people have to go to someone and say, “I did this. I did that” to ask for forgiveness from Allah ﷻ. He asks for forgiveness in return for money. There is not such a thing in Islam. When you commit a sin and then repent and ask for forgiveness, Allah ﷻ will forgive you.

Also, as our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, the sins committed from a prayer to the next prayer are forgiven when you stand for next prayer. Sins are forgiven from Jum’ah to Jum’ah as well for people who pray Jum’ah prayer. And then for those who fast in Ramadan, sins are forgiven from Ramadan to Ramadan. It is a great blessing not to be in need of anyone.

Also, when you commit a sin, no need to tell anyone. Allah ﷻ is As-Sattar, the Veiler. No need to share it with anyone and then ask from Allah ﷻ. Know your sin yourself and ask for forgiveness from Allah ﷻ, Allah ﷻ will veil you. And He ﷻ won’t shame you. He ﷻ won’t shame you around people on Judgment Day. The Mercy of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has no limits or boundaries. Everything of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is unlimited.

People don’t know these great blessings. They go against Allah ﷻ. People are ungrateful most of the time. When they are done goodness, they do badness in return. May Allah ﷻ improve them. People in Islam should guard the way of Islam. They must know the Greatness of Allah ﷻ and Benevolence of Allah ﷻ, the Mercy of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and Goodness of Allah ﷻ. They must know that everything is from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla so that they are at rest. Otherwise, they cause suffering to themselves and don’t know what to do.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is showing us how Magnificent and how Great He ﷻ is through the holy word of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. To walk on the way of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is the way to happiness of Muslims and to attaining the pleasure of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Otherwise, if you say, “I will do myself”, there will be hardship all the time. You will cause suffering to yourself. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

As we said, people who repent and ask for forgiveness from prayer to prayer, their repentance will certainly be accepted. As long as you don’t commit a big sin - There are also different ways of repentance for the big sins. And the Door of Repentance, the Door of Forgiveness of Allah ﷻ is open. They will always be forgiven. But mankind should ask for forgiveness from Allah ﷻ. That is what’s important. They shouldn’t say, “I committed too many sins, I won’t be forgiven”. Certainly, when they ask for forgiveness sincerely, Allah ﷻ will forgive. May Allah ﷻ forgive us all insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Ayat, Surahs, Tasbihat and Salawat. Our brothers are reciting them from all over the world, Shukr to Allah ﷻ. They send them to be gifted, may Allah ﷻ accept it. We gift them firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷻ, his ﷺ Ahlu lBayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and Mashayikh, souls of our late relatives, souls of all Muslims and Mu’mins. For goodness to come and evil to be gone. May all good goals of those who recited be reached, may Allah ﷻ accept it. For happiness here and hereafter.

Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.
