Arabic text

4246 - حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَعَمِّهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَا أَكْثَرُ مَا يُدْخِلُ الْجَنَّةَ؟ قَالَ: «التَّقْوَى، وَحُسْنُ الْخُلُقِ» ، وَسُئِلَ مَا أَكْثَرُ مَا يُدْخِلُ النَّارَ؟ قَالَ: " الْأَجْوَفَانِ: الْفَمُ، وَالْفَرْجُ "

Commentary

a. Piety means fearing Allâh and avoiding sins. Noble character prevents one from oppressing and mistreating people. Therefore, the rights of Allâh due to piety, and the rights of His slaves due to noble character are carried out properly; fulfilling both types of rights is a means of entering Paradise. b. If a sin is related to the violation of the rights of people then the sinner has to pay back their rights or seek their forgiveness, otherwise his repentance is not considered complete.
