There's a hadith of abiloh prophet Muhammad, peace

00:00:06 --> 00:00:08

be upon him, that if anyone accepts Islam,

00:00:08 --> 00:00:11

Allah will forgive his previous sins.

00:00:11 --> 00:00:13

Please can you let me know regarding this

00:00:13 --> 00:00:13

hadith?

00:00:14 --> 00:00:16

And if there are some more evidences from

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

the glorious Quran

00:00:18 --> 00:00:20

regarding this. There's a hadith of abla, our

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings be upon

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

him, wherein Amr bin Allahas,

00:00:24 --> 00:00:25

he wanted to

00:00:26 --> 00:00:27

accept Islam.

00:00:27 --> 00:00:29

And he comes to abla prophet Muhammad, peace

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

be upon him, in order to pledge allegiance

00:00:31 --> 00:00:33

to abla prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him,

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35

and in order to accept Islam.

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

So the prophet, peace be upon him, stretches

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

his hand, and Amr bin al asked he's

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

about to give allegiance and accept Islam, but

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

he pulls his hand back. So the prophet,

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

peace be upon him, asks him why. So

00:00:47 --> 00:00:49

Amr bin Al asked. He says that I

00:00:49 --> 00:00:50

have a condition. So the prophet, peace be

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

upon him, says, what is your condition? So

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

he says, will my previous sins be forgiven?

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

So the prophet, peace be upon him, tells

00:00:59 --> 00:01:02

that don't you know that once you embrace

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

Islam, all your previous sins are forgiven? And

00:01:04 --> 00:01:04

then

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

he embraces Islam. From this hadith, we understand

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

that once a person embraces Islam,

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

all of his previous sins are forgiven,

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

and he's like a newborn baby.

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

Such a great

00:01:18 --> 00:01:20

opportunity for the non Muslims to embrace Islam.

00:01:20 --> 00:01:23

Imagine a person. He may have committed murder.

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25

He may have robbed. He may have cheated.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:26

He may have done,

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

but if he truly

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

repents and he truly believes

00:01:30 --> 00:01:31

in Islam,

00:01:32 --> 00:01:34

he truly believes in Allah alone and the

00:01:34 --> 00:01:35

prophet Muhammad peace be upon you as the

00:01:35 --> 00:01:37

last and final messenger. Insha Allah, all of

00:01:37 --> 00:01:40

his previous sins will be forgiven.

00:01:40 --> 00:01:40

And

00:01:41 --> 00:01:41

Allah

00:01:42 --> 00:01:44

also says in the glorious Quran in Suratul

00:01:44 --> 00:01:45

Furqan,

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

chapter number 25,

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

verse number 70.

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

As for the one who repents,

00:01:58 --> 00:02:01

believes, and does righteous deeds, then Allah will

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

convert his evil deeds into good deeds. Such

00:02:03 --> 00:02:04

a great reward

00:02:05 --> 00:02:07

for a person who repents and believes and

00:02:07 --> 00:02:10

does righteous deeds. And the non Muslims,

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

those who embrace Islam, the moment they embrace

00:02:12 --> 00:02:16

Islam, all of their previous sins are forgiven,

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

and we see that the non Muslims, they

00:02:19 --> 00:02:20

are very enthusiastic

00:02:20 --> 00:02:23

when it comes to learning about Islam.

00:02:23 --> 00:02:25

So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, he's the most

00:02:25 --> 00:02:27

gracious. He's the most merciful.

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30

If we take one step towards Allah subhanahu

00:02:30 --> 00:02:32

wa ta'ala, he will take several steps towards

00:02:32 --> 00:02:35

us, but we need to be eager to

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

learn regarding the religion of Islam. And we

00:02:37 --> 00:02:41

see several non Muslims there embracing Islam. Why

00:02:41 --> 00:02:42

are they embracing Islam?

00:02:42 --> 00:02:45

Because they know Islam has a solution to

00:02:45 --> 00:02:47

the problems of humanity. They know Islam is

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

a logical religion.

00:02:49 --> 00:02:51

They know Islam is a peaceful religion.

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

Today, Islam is the fastest growing religion in

00:02:54 --> 00:02:57

the world. Thousands of people in the west,

00:02:57 --> 00:03:00

in America, in UK, in other parts of

00:03:00 --> 00:03:02

the world, they are embracing Islam because they

00:03:02 --> 00:03:03

are convinced

00:03:03 --> 00:03:04

with Islam.
