2436. Ja'far bin Muḥammad narrated from his father, from Jābir bin 'Abdullāh who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'My intercession is for the people who committed major sins in my Ummah.'" Muḥammad bin 'Alī said: "Jābir said to me: 'O Muḥammad! Whoever is not among the people of major sins, then there is no need in the intercession for him.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is [Ḥasan] Gharīb from this route. [It was considered Gharīb as a narration of Ja'far bin Muḥammad].

Commentary
Punishment for minor sins would be waived by Allāh for the following circumstances: (i) in return for the good deeds done by the people, (ii) as a reward for exercising patience in times of adversity or (iii) for the suffering undergone by Allāh's servants in their graves or while standing in wait before Allāh after Resurrection. The intercession in their case would, therefore, be for the raising of their ranks.
