- (يُؤتَى بالرجل يوم القيامة فيُقالُ: اعرِضوا عليه صغارَ ذُنُوبِهِ. فتُعرضُ عليه، ويُخَبَّأُ عنه كبارُها، فيُقالُ: عملت يوم كذا وكذا؛ كذا وكذا، وهو مُقرٌّ لا يُنكرُ، وهو مُشفِقٌ من الكبارِ، فيُقالُ: أعطُوهُ مكان كلِّ سيئةٍ عَمِلَها حسنةً. قال: فيقول: إنَّ لي ذنوباً ما أراها هَهُنا. قال أبو ذرٍّ: فلقد رأيتُ رسولَ اللهِ - صلى الله عليه وسلم - ضَحِكَ حتى بَدَتْ نَواجِذُهُ) .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him), he says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "A man will be brought on the Day of Resurrection and it will be said: Present to him his minor sins, so they will be presented to him, and his major sins will be concealed. And (to make him confess) it will be said to him: Did you commit such and such sin on such and such day? (In response) he will confess and will not deny, but he will be afraid of his major sins (being presented). (Then) it will be said: For every sin of his, grant him a good deed." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "(Seeing this state of Divine mercy) that servant will say: I had some other sins as well, which I do not see here." Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) laughing so much (after saying this) that his molar teeth became visible.
