Just 5th, Allah
says,
Allah
says, and this message is repeated by Allah
3 places in the Quran, including this one
in Surat An Nasah,
that if you stay away from the major
sins, major crimes, Allah
out of his immense mercy, he will going
to forgive your short smaller shortcomings, smaller sins.
What does it mean? Many a times, we
have this different priority.
The priority is that you'll focus on small
small things, and we'll ignore the big things
in the sharia, big sins in the sharia.
We might focus on the smaller issues,
but we might have a bigger issues in
our family to deal with. We might have
a issue of being disrespectful to our parents.
We might have an issue with our spouse,
with our family, with our society.
Those are the big issues.
And if we were going to pay attention
to the smaller issue
at the expense of the bigger issue, then
Allah
is reminding us that our priorities are messed
up. We should pay attention to the bigger
issues, leaving shirk, not doing zina,
having a good relationship with our parents and
with our family.
And all these things will come eventually
with the focus on a smaller issue as
well. If he will do this, then we'll
have a balanced picture. And whatever our shortcomings
are in the smaller things, Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala was going to forgive with his immense
mercy. Ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to give
us the forgiveness.
