Q
How does Allah’s forgiveness relate to the concept of privacy in committing sins?
A
I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying. “All the sins of my followers will be forgiven except those of the
Mujahirin (those who commit a sin openly or disclose their sins to the people). An example of such
disclosure is that a person commits a sin at night and though Allah screens it from the public, then he
comes in the morning, and says, ‘O so-and-so, I did such-and-such (evil) deed yesterday,’ though he
spent his night screened by his Lord (none knowing about his sin) and in the morning he removes
Allah’s screen from himself.”
