Forgiveness

مَنْ لَمْ يُغْفَرْ لَهُ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ لَمْ يُغْفَرْ لَهُ إِلَى قَابِلٍ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشْهَدَ عَرَفَةَ[2].

"Whoever is not forgiven during the Month of Ramadan will not be forgiven until the following year, except if they witness the Day of Arafah."

ادْعُ بِهَذَا الدُّعَاءِ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ مُسْتَقْبِلَ دُخُولِ السَّنَةِ[1] وَ ذَكَرَ أَنَّ مَنْ دَعَا بِهِ مُحْتَسِباً مُخْلِصاً لَمْ تُصِبْهُ فِي تِلْكَ السَّنَةِ فِتْنَةٌ وَ لَا آفَةٌ فِي دِينِهِ وَ دُنْيَاهُ وَ بَدَنِهِ وَ وَقَاهُ اللَّهُ شَرَّ مَا يَأْتِي بِهِ فِي تِلْكَ السَّنَةِ- اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِي دَانَ لَهُ كُلُّ شَيْ‌ءٍ[2] وَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ الَّتِي وَسِعَتْ كُلَّ شَيْ‌ءٍ وَ بِع

"Recite this supplication in Month of Ramadan at the beginning of the year." He mentioned, "Whoever recites it sincerely and with intention will not face any tribulation or calamity in their religion, worldly affairs, or body during that year, and Allah (swt) will protect them from the harm of that year." The supplicat

وَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع‌[3] عَلَيْكُمْ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ بِكَثْرَةِ الِاسْتِغْفَارِ وَ الدُّعَاءِ فَأَمَّا الدُّعَاءُ فَيَدْفَعُ عَنْكُمُ الْبَلَاءَ[4] وَ أَمَّا الِاسْتِغْفَارُ فَتُمْحَى بِهِ ذُنُوبُكُمْ‌[5].

Hadith.1858 - Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "During the Month of Ramadan, engage abundantly in seeking forgiveness and supplication. As for supplication, it wards off affliction from you, and as for seeking forgiveness, it erases your sins."

إِنْ كَانَ حَرَاماً فَلْيَسْتَغْفِرِ اللَّهَ اسْتِغْفَارَ مَنْ لَا يَعُودُ أَبَداً وَ يَصُومُ‌ يَوْماً مَكَانَ يَوْمٍ‌[1].

Hadith.1876 - Rifa'ah ibn Musa asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who touched his female servant during the Month of Ramadan and emitted pre-ejaculatory fluid (madhy). Imam (as) said: "If it was unlawful, then he must seek Allah’s (swt) forgiveness with the repentance of one who will never repeat it, and he must fast

وَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص‌[3] مَنْ فَطَّرَ فِي هَذَا الشَّهْرِ مُؤْمِناً صَائِماً كَانَ لَهُ بِذَلِكَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عِتْقُ رَقَبَةٍ وَ مَغْفِرَةٌ لِمَا مَضَى مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَيْسَ كُلُّنَا نَقْدِرُ عَلَى أَنْ نُفَطِّرَ صَائِماً فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى كَرِيمٌ يُعْطِي هَذَا الثَّوَابَ مِنْكُمْ مَنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ إِلَّا عَلَى مَذْقَةٍ[4] مِنْ لَبَنٍ يُفَط

Hadith.1956 - The Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) said: "Whoever provides iftar to a believing fasting person during this month will have, for that act, the reward of freeing a slave and forgiveness for their past sins from Allah (swt), the Exalted and Glorious." It was said to Him (sw): "O Messenger of Alla

«إِنَّ اَللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى وَ مَلاَئِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى اَلْمُسْتَغْفِرِينَ وَ اَلْمُتَسَحِّرِينَ بِالْأَسْحَارِ فَلْيَتَسَحَّرْ أَحَدُكُمْ وَ لَوْ بِشَرْبَةٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ.

Hadith.1961 - It is narrated from Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) that the Prophet (sw) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "Indeed, Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, and His angels send blessings upon those who seek forgiveness and those who partake in suhoor during the pre-dawn hours.

The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "The best among my nation are those who break their fast and shorten their prayers when traveling, rejoice when they do good, and seek forgiveness when they commit wrongs. The worst among my nation are those who are born into luxury, nurtured in it,

I said to Abu Abdullah (as): "People say that forgiveness descends upon those who fast during the Month of Ramadan on the Night of Qadr." Imam (as) replied: "O Hasan, the wage-earner is only given his reward when he has completed his work, and that is on the Night of Eid." I asked: "May I be your ransom! What should we

I heard Abu Ja’far (as) narrating to the people in Makkah. Imam (as) said: "The Messenger of Allah (swt), peace and blessings be upon him and his family, prayed Fajr with his companions and then sat with them, speaking to them until the sun rose. One by one, the men began to leave until only two remained: one Ansari an

Hadith.2141 - Whoever recites the Talbiyah seventy times during their state of Ihram with faith and sincere intention, Allah (swt) makes a thousand angels bear witness to their freedom from the Fire and freedom from hypocrisy. Whoever reaches the Haram, stops, performs a ritual bath (ghusl), takes their sandals in thei

Hadith.2150 - Imam (as) said: "Whoever enters the Kaaba with tranquility, meaning they enter it without arrogance or oppression, will have their sins forgiven."

مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ كُورَةٍ وَقَفَ بِعَرَفَةَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ[1] إِلَّا غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لِأَهْلِ تِلْكَ الْكُورَةِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ وَقَفَ بِعَرَفَةَ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِلَّا غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لِأَهْلِ ذَلِكَ الْبَيْتِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

Hadith.2188 - Indeed, on that night (the eve of Arafah), the gates of the heavens are not closed to the voices of the believers, whose supplications resound like the buzzing of bees. Allah (swt), Mighty and Majestic, says: 'I am your Lord (azj), and you are My servants. You have fulfilled My right, and it is incumbent

إِنَّمَا اسْتَحْسَنُوا إِشْعَارَ الْبُدْنِ لِأَنَّ أَوَّلَ قَطْرَةٍ تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دَمِهَا يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ[2]

Hadith.2199 - The Messenger of Allah (swt), peace and blessings be upon him and his family, sought forgiveness for those who shaved their heads three times and for those who trimmed their hair once.

يَرْجِعُ مَغْفُوراً لَا ذَنْبَ لَهُ.

Hadith.2201 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked about the words of Allah (swt), Mighty and Majestic: "Then whoever hastens to leave in two days, there is no sin upon him; and whoever delays, there is no sin upon him" (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:203). Imam (as) said: "They return forgiven, with no sin upon them."

وَ مَنْ حَجَّ يُرِيدُ بِهِ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَا يُرِيدُ بِهِ رِيَاءً وَ لَا سُمْعَةً غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ الْبَتَّةَ[2].

Hadith.2221 - Whoever performs Hajj seeking the pleasure of Allah (swt), Mighty and Majestic, without intending to show off or gain reputation, Allah (swt) will forgive them completely.

مَا تَخَلَّفَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْحَجِّ إِلَّا بِذَنْبٍ[5] وَ مَا يَعْفُو اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَكْثَرُ

Hadith.2253 - The pilgrim falls into three categories: The one with the greatest reward is a person whose past and his future sins are forgiven, and Allah (swt) protects them from the punishment of the grave. The next is a person whose past sins are forgiven, and they start anew in their remaining life with fresh deeds

Hadith.2587 - Muhammad ibn Muslim and al-Halabi both narrated from Abu Abdullah (as) regarding the verse of Allah (swt), the Almighty: "Hajj is in the well-known months. So whoever has made Hajj obligatory upon himself therein, there is to be no obscenity (rafath), no sin (fusuq), and no disputing (jidal) during Hajj."

"Whoever intentionally eats saffron or food containing fragrance while in Ihram must offer a blood sacrifice (dam). However, if he does so out of forgetfulness, there is nothing upon him, but he should seek forgiveness from Allah (swt) and repent to Him."
