Question:
Salams ,
I’ve just got a couple of questions about the hikmas.
In chapter 6:
Let no sin reach such proportions in your eyes that it cuts you off from having a good opinion of God… I was just wondering how a sin would lead to this?
And: (same chapter): There is no minor sin when His justice confronts you…. (I dont understand this).
And same chapter again: No deed is more fruitful for the heart than the one you are not aware of and which is deemed paltry by you —What would an example of this be?
Answer:
Alaykum Salam,
They are all based on Ayat and hadith and we advise that you read it with a teacher. First is prohibition of despair, 2nd prohibition of overconfidence, and 3rd is a small good deed which is completely devoid of riya‘ and is thus turned into a great one.
