Prayer erases the effect of sins
Hadith 545
- (إنّ المسلمَ يصلِّي وخَطاياهُ مرفوعةٌ على رأسِه، كلّما سجَدَ تحاتَّت عنه، فيفرُغُ من صلاتِه؛ وقد تحاتَّت خطاياهُ) .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salman al-Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a Muslim performs prayer, his sins are placed upon his head. Whenever he prostrates, they fall off. When he finishes his prayer, his sins have fallen away."
