Chapter: What has been reported regarding the time limit in which repentance is accepted
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 10172 — What has been reported regarding the time
عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقْبَلُ تَوْبَةَ عَبْدِهِ أَوْ يَغْفِرُ لِعَبْدِهِ مَا لَمْ يَقَعِ الْحِجَابُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا الْحِجَابُ قَالَ أَنْ تَمُوتَ النَّفْسُ وَهِيَ مُشْرِكَةٌ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, Allah Almighty accepts the servant’s repentance, or forgives him, as long as the veil has not occurred. The people asked: O Messenger of Allah! What is meant by the veil? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: For a soul to die in a state of associating partners with Allah (shirk).
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … For the one who dies in a state of shirk (associating partners with Allah), all means of repentance and turning back are forever cut off. We ask Allah Ta‘ala for pardon and well-being in both worlds.
