Brief Explanation
Benefit: It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: “Every believing servant has some sin to which he becomes accustomed, which he commits from time to time, or there is a sin upon which he persists and does not abandon it until he himself departs (from this world). Indeed, the believer is created as one who is tested, who repents abundantly, and who forgets much. When he is reminded (of repentance), he remembers.” [المعجم الكبير : 11810 ، و سندہ حسن]
