إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَعْطَى التَّائِبِينَ ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ لَوْ أَعْطَى خَصْلَةً مِنْهَا جَمِيعَ أَهْلِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ لَنَجَوْا بِهَا قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِينَ وَ يُحِبُّ الْمُتَطَهِّرِينَ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّهُ اللَّهُ لَمْ يُعَذِّبْهُ وَ قَوْلُهُ الَّذِينَ يَحْمِلُونَ الْعَرْشَ وَ مَنْ حَوْلَهُ يُسَبِّحُونَ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّهِمْ... وَ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا رَبَّنا وَسِعْتَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ رَحْمَةً وَ عِلْماً فَاغْفِرْ لِلَّذِينَ تابُوا وَ اتَّبَعُوا سَبِيلَكَ وَ قِهِمْ عَذابَ الْجَحِيمِ رَبَّنا وَ أَدْخِلْهُمْ جَنَّاتِ عَدْنٍ الَّتِي وَعَدْتَهُمْ وَ مَنْ صَلَحَ مِنْ آبائِهِمْ وَ أَزْواجِهِمْ وَ ذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ وَ قِهِمُ السَّيِّئاتِ وَ مَنْ تَقِ السَّيِّئاتِ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَقَدْ رَحِمْتَهُ وَ ذلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ وَ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ الَّذِينَ لا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلهاً آخَرَ وَ لا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَ لا يَزْنُونَ وَ مَنْ يَفْعَلْ ذلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثاماً يُضاعَفْ لَهُ الْعَذابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ وَ يَخْلُدْ فِيهِ مُهاناً إِلَّا مَنْ تابَ وَ آمَنَ وَ عَمِلَ عَمَلًا صالِحاً فَأُوْلئِكَ يُبَدِّلُ اللَّهُ سَيِّئاتِهِمْ حَسَناتٍ وَ كانَ اللَّهُ غَفُوراً رَحِيماً .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from one of our companions, raising it, said, ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Gave three characteristics to the repenting ones. Had He<sup>azwj</sup> Given one characteristic from it to the inhabitants of the skies and the earth, they would have attained salvation by it. The Words of the Mighty and Majestic <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:2#h222"><a href="/books/quran:2#h222">[2:222]</a></a> surely Allah Loves the repentant, and He Loves those who purify themselves</span>. So the one whom Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Loves, would not Punish him. And His<sup>azwj</sup> Words <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:40#h7"><a href="/books/quran:40#h7">[40:7]</a></a> Those who are bearing the Throne and those around it Glorify the Praise of their Lord and believe in Him and ask Forgiveness for those who believe: Our Lord Extends all things in Mercy and Knowledge, therefore grant Forgiveness to those who repent and follow Your Way, and save them from the Punishment of the Blazing Fire: <a href="/#/books/quran:40#h8"><a href="/books/quran:40#h8">[40:8]</a></a> Our Lord! And Make them enter the Gardens of Eden which You have Promised to them and those who do good of their fathers and their wives and their offspring, surely You are the Mighty, the Wise. <a href="/#/books/quran:40#h9"><a href="/books/quran:40#h9">[40:9]</a></a> And Save them from evil deeds, and whom You are Saving from evil deeds on this Day, indeed You hast Mercy on him, and that is the mighty achievement</span>. <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:25#h68"><a href="/books/quran:25#h68">[25:68]</a></a> And they who do not call upon another god with Allah and do not slay the soul, which Allah has Forbidden except with the right, nor are they adulterous, and the one who does that would be in sin <a href="/#/books/quran:25#h69"><a href="/books/quran:25#h69">[25:69]</a></a> The Punishment shall be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he shall abide therein eternally in disgrace <a href="/#/books/quran:25#h70"><a href="/books/quran:25#h70">[25:70]</a></a> Except for the one who repents and believes and does righteous deeds; so these are they for whom Allah would Exchange their evil deeds to good ones; and Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful</span>’.
