(1). 3276. ['Abdullāh] bin Mas'ūd said: "When the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ reached Sidrat Al-Muntahā" He said: "There terminates everything that ascends from the earth, and everything that descends from above. So there Allāh gave him three, which He did not give to any Prophet before him: He made five prayers obligatory upon him, He gave him the last Verses of Sūrat Al-Baqarah, and
He pardoned the grave sins for those of his Ummah who do not associate anything with Allāh.'
Ibn Mas'ūd said regarding the Āyah: "When that covered the Sidrah which did cover it!"[1] he said: "The sixth Sidrah in heavens." Sufyān said: "Golden butterflies" and Sufyān indicated with his hand in a fluttering motion. Others besides Mālik bin Mighwal said: "There terminates the creatures' knowledge, there is no knowledge for them of what is above that." (Sahīh)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ĥadīth is Hasan Ṣahīh.

Commentary
He was granted three things on this occasion; the meaning of forgiveness of major sins is that major sins are forgiven because of repentance with the mercy of Allāh or will be forgiven after bearing the punishment. The perpetrator of the major sins will not stay in the Hell forever.
