Major Sin: Sodomy

Allah, Most High, recounts in His Book the story of Lut’s people in several positions. Allah, the Almighty says, {When Our decree issued, We turned (the cities) upside down, and rained down on them brimstones hard as baked clay, spread, layer on layer, marked from thy Lord; nor are they ever far from those who do wrong!”} (Hud: 82-83)

This abode is not far from those who do wrong amongst our nation if they committed the same sin. Therefore, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “What I fear most is that my nation may follow the crime of Lut’s people.” (Reported by At- Tirmidhi)

The Prophet (peace be upon him) also said, “May Allah curse him who does what Lut’s people did.” (Reported by At- Tirmidhi) He said it twice.

Do Not Go Near Adultery (Part 2)

Do Not Go Near Adultery (Part 1)

It was reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Satan (Iblis) often sends his soldiers everywhere in the earth, saying to them, ‘Whoever diverts a Muslim, I will crown him. The most skillful one in diverting people, the nearest to me. Meanwhile, a devil comes and says, “I kept tempting such and such until he divorced his wife.’ Iblis says, ‘You did nothing. He will marry another woman.’ Another comes and says, ‘I kept tempting such and such until I created a grudge between him and his brother. ’ Iblis says, ‘You did nothing. He will reconcile with him.’ Eventually comes another devil who says, ‘I kept tempting such and such until he fell into adultery.’ Iblis says, ‘Great and well done. Then he makes him nearer to him and crowns him.” (Reported by Al-Siuti)

We seek Allah’s refuge from the evils of Satan and his soldiers. It was reported that on the authority of Anas that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Faith is like a garment with which Allah covers whomever He likes. But if he falls in adultery, this garment will be taken off, and if he repents, He will restore it again.” (Reported by Ad-Dai1ami. It’s a weak hadith)

Do Not Go Near Adultery (Part 1)

Allah, the Almighty, says, {Nor come nigh to adultery: for it is an indecent (deed) and an evil way.} (Al-Isra’: 32)

The Qur’an also states, {Those who invoke not, with Allah, any other god, Nor slay such life as Allah has made sacred, except for just cause, nor commit fornication,’ -and any that does this (not only) meets punishment. (But) The chastisement on the Day of Judgment will be doubled to him, and he will dwell therein in ignominy.} (Al-Furqan: 68-70)

Allah, the Most High, says, {The woman and the man guilty of fornication, flog each of them with a hundred stripes: Let not compassion move you in their case, in a matter prescribed by Allah, if ye believe in Allah and the Last Day: And let a party of the believers witness their punishment.” (An-Nur: 2)

Severing The Ties Of One’s Relatives

Allah, the Most High, says, “Fear Allah, through Whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and be heedful of the wombs.” (An-Nisa’: 1)

The Qur’an also states, “Then it is to be expected of you, if ye were put in authority, that ye will do mischief in the land and break your ties of kith and kin: such are the men whom Allah has cursed, for He has made them deaf and blinded their sight.” (Muhammad: 22-23)

Allah, the Almighty, says, {Those who fulfill the covenant of Allah and fail not in their plighted word; those who join together those things which Allah hath commanded to be joined, hold their Lord in awe, and fear the terrible reckoning.} (Ar-Ra’d: 20-21)

Allah, the Most High, says, {He causes many to stray, and many He leads into the right path. But He causes not to stray, except those who forsake (the path), those who break Allah’s covenant after it is ratified, and who sunder what Allah has ordered to be joined and do mischief on earth: those cause loss only to themselves.} (Al-Baqarah: 26-27)

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “He who severs his family ties will not enter Paradise.” (Reported by Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

Thus, whoever abandons his relatives, is proud over them, and disdains to support the needy if he is rich is

Showing Disrespect to One’s Parents (Part 2)

Showing Disrespect to One’s Parents (Part 1)

Once Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) saw a man bearing his mother upon his shoulder and making circumambulation around the Ka’ba. The man asked him, “Do you think that I requite her? No, not even with a cry from childbirth. But well done. Allah will give you in return for a little deed a great reward.” (Reported by AI-Bukhari)

Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) related that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “There are four people who will not enter Paradise as Allah decreed: a drunkard, a usurer, he who appropriates the
