بَابٌ فِي كَوْنِ الْإِسْلَامِ يَجُبُّ مَا قَبْلَهُ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ وَكَذَا الْهِجْرَةُ وَ هَلْ يُؤَاخَذُ بِأَعْمَالِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَ بَيَانُ حُكْمِ عَمَلِ الْكَافِرِ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ بَعْدَهُ
Chapter on the ruling that Islam erases what came before it of sins, likewise migration, and whether one is held accountable for the deeds of ignorance, and the ruling on the deeds of a disbeliever if he accepts Islam afterward
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 122 — on the ruling that Islam erases what came
عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبَسَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ يَدَّعِمُ عَلَى عَصًا لَهُ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! إِنَّ لِي غَدَرَاتٍ وَفَجَرَاتٍ فَهَلْ يُغْفَرُ لِي؟ قَالَ: ((أَلَسْتَ تَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ؟)) قَالَ: بَلَى! وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: ((قَدْ غُفِرَ لَكَ غَدَرَاتُكَ وَفَجَرَاتُكَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him) that an old man came to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) leaning on a stick and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Indeed, I have committed deceits, betrayals, and evils; will I still be forgiven?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you not bear witness that Allah alone is the true deity?" He said: "Why not, in fact, I also bear witness that you are the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Your deceits, betrayals, and evils have been forgiven."
