It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a very old man, walking with the support of a stick, came to the service of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I have committed great deceptions and great sins. Can I be forgiven?" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "All your deceptions and sins have been forgiven."
