Raise your hands!


Abdullah ibn Mushabbib al-Qahtāni

Do not consider any matter as difficult for Him, regardless of how great or serious it may be. The Prophet (may A llah’s peace and blessings be upon him) is authentically reported to have said:

“When anyone of you supplicates, he should not say: ‘O Allah, forgive me if You wish.’ But he should be determined in his request and persistent in expressing his desire, for no bounty is too great for Allah to bestow (upon His slaves).”

[Narrated by Al -Bukhāri and Muslim -this is the wording of Muslim]

Our Lord is magnificent in His mercy, forgiveness, forbearance, kindness, and generosity. No sin is too great for Him to forgive

In the Hadīth about intercession, the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “... O Muhammad, raise your head, speak and you will be heard, ask and you will be given, and intercede and your intercession will be accepted.

I will say: ‘O Lord, give me permission with regard to those who said: la ilāha illallāh (there is no god except Allah).’ He will say:

‘By My honor, majesty, pride, and magnificence, I will bring out of it anyone who said: la ilāha illallāh (there is no god except Allah).’”

[Narrated by Al-Bukhāri and Muslim]

When my heart hardened and life became too tough for me, I considered my sins so great.

But when I compared them to Your pardon, I found Your pardon far greater.
