Our master Prophet Muhammad, (Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) said,
“This is the middle Night of Sha’ban. Allah frees in it a large number of the people from Fire, more than the number of the hair growing on the sheep of the tribe, Kalb. But He does not even look at an individual who
– associates partners with Allah, or
– who nourishes malice in his heart (against someone), or
– who cuts off the ties of kinship (qata’ rehmi), or
– who leaves his clothes extending beyond his ankles (as a sign of pride), or
– who disobeys his parents, or
– who has a habit of drinking wine.”
Allah save us from being among these individuals. Amin!
Salaam,
JazakAllah for the post. With due respect I would like to which Hadith did you get this from, because I don’t remember seeing this anywhere. Your help will be appreciated. JazakAllah.
