955 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْمُعَدِّلُ، أبنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ جَامِعٍ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ثنا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ بَانَكَ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَوْفُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَهَا: «يَا عَائِشَةُ إِيَّاكِ وَمُحَقَّرَاتِ الذُّنُوبِ، فَإِنَّ لَهَا مِنَ اللَّهِ طَالِبًا»
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that indeed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Aisha! Beware even of sins that are considered minor, for there is also a demander from Allah for them."
Brief Explanation
Explanation:
The meaning is that, along with major sins (kabirah), one should also avoid minor sins (saghirah), because every action of a person is being recorded, and these minor sins are in fact a prelude to major sins. Shaytan first makes a person commit small sins, and then leads him into major sins. By persisting in minor sins, they take the form of a mountain, and due to the misconception of their being minor, a person does not even make arrangements for forgiveness.
“As for minor sins, there is a demander from Allah Ta’ala regarding them.” That is, on the Day of Resurrection, either the sin itself will demand punishment from Allah Ta’ala, or the angel appointed for this matter will demand punishment for it, or it refers to Hell, which lies in wait for the sinners. And Allah knows best.
