Hadīth Qudsī:
Allah (تعالى) said: “Whoever knows that certainly I possess the power over forgiving sins, then I will forgive him without caring, so long as he did not ascribe anything as a partner to me.” Reported by al-Tabarānī (in al kabīr) & al Hākim from Ibn ‘Abbās.
Allaama As-Saadi [رحمه الله] said:
❝The greatest good news which a person receives is Allaah giving him the capability of having Eemaan and carrying out righteous actions.❞
[Tafseer As-Saadi, (1/50) | Translated By Abbas Abu Yahya Miraath al-Anbiyya]
📄 Why were we given this dunya?
'Uthmān bin 'Affān رضي الله عنه said:
"Verily, Allāh only gave you the dunya so that you use it to seek the hereafter, and He did not give it to you so that you would incline towards it."
