It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Indeed, a man committed a sin and said: O my Lord! I have committed a sin, so forgive me. Allah Almighty said: My servant has committed a sin and he has also realized that he has a Lord who can forgive sins and can also seize because of them. Verily, I have forgiven My servant. Then that servant committed another sin and said: O my Lord! I have committed a sin, so forgive it. Thereupon Allah Almighty said: My servant has realized that he has a Lord who forgives sins and also seizes because of them. Verily, I have forgiven My servant. Then he committed another sin and said: O my Lord! I have committed a sin, so forgive me. Allah Almighty said: My servant has realized that he has a Lord who forgives sins and also seizes because of them. Verily, I have forgiven My servant; let him do as he wishes.
