Was a man who walked into the mesh of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

wa sallam, and he was so overwhelmed, and he kept saying,

00:00:06 --> 00:00:11

my sins, my sins. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, tahim

00:00:11 --> 00:00:19

a DUA, he said, Allahumma O Allah melfiro, Sarah min lubi, your

00:00:19 --> 00:00:23

forgiveness is greater than my sins or rahmatuka al Raja and

00:00:23 --> 00:00:29

demon Amali, and I have more hope in your mercy then in my own in my

00:00:29 --> 00:00:33

own actions. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told

00:00:33 --> 00:00:37

him to say it again and then again. After he had said it three

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

times, the Prophet saw some told him that he's forgiven. This man

00:00:40 --> 00:00:47

wasn't told to sit in self hatred or shame or guilt point that he

00:00:47 --> 00:00:52

can't live with joy in his relationship with Allah in the

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

next 15 days, if you haven't done everything that you wish you had,

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

it is worship to have hope in Allah.
