197. Those CRUCIAL ‘SIX’ Hours

By Asma bint Shameem 

The Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam said:

“The angel on the left holds up his pen (refrains from writing down) for SIX hours after a Muslim commits a sin.

If the person regrets it and asks Allaah for forgiveness, he casts it aside (does not write it down), otherwise he writes it down as one (bad deed).”

(at-Tabaraani - hasan by al-Albaani)

Subhaan Allaah!

Just look at the Mercy of Allaah!

And such Love for His slaves!

If we commit a sin, Allaah, the Most Merciful, has ordered the angel responsible for writing that bad deed, to wait SIX HOURS before he writes it down, WAITING FOR US TO REPENT!

Could there be a Rabb more Loving, more Forgiving than that??! 

So if you fall short in your duties or do something you were not supposed to, make Taubah IMMEDIATELY. 

Don't wait or delay. 

Turn to Allaah RIGHT THEN and THERE. 

And ask for forgiveness. 

He will surely forgive you if you're sincere. 

That's His Promise.  

“And whoever does evil or wrongs himself but afterwards seeks Allaah’s forgiveness, he will find Allaah Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful” [al-Nisaa’ 4:110]

Don't let those SIX HOURS pass you by.....
