نبذة نيل وفرات:It is the first book of the quarter of saviors in the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Praise be to Allah with whose praise every book is perfected; with Whose invocation every discourse is commenced; by whose praise the people of felicity shall abide with ease in ...the abode of recompense, and by Whose Name the wretched are consoled, even if the bar is set down before them, and they are separated from the bliss by a portal wall, inside which there is Divine Mercy, while outside there is Divine Chastisement.
We turn unto Him in repentance are convinced that he is master of all masters and originator of all causes. We look to him in anticipation, are certain of His being the King, compassionate, forgiving and ready to accept repentance.
We blend dread with hope, and have no doubt that while forgiving of transgression and receptive to repentance he is stern in inflicting punishment.
We pray for his prophet Muhammad “Allah’s blessing and peace be upon him” and for his family and companions, a prayer that will rescue us from the terror of the place whence one will look down on the day of resurrection and will secure for us nearness to and safe refuge with Allah.
Since repentance occupies such a place in religion, it must be put first in the Quarter of saviors with explanation of its true nature, requisites, motivation, manifestation and benefit, the difficulties barring it and the remedies facilitating it. This will become clear by discussing four pillars.
The first pillar: on the nature of repentance: Explication of its definition and true character; that it is obligatory, at once, on all men, under all conditions and that, if properly carried through, is accepted.
The second pillar: On the context of repentance (injustice): Explication of sin’s, their division into trivial and major sins, some toward one’s fellow man others toward Allah; how higher and lower states (in the hereafter) are distributed according to good and evil deeds (in this life); the circumstances that turn the trivial into major sins.
The third pillar: On the requisites and perseverance of repentance. How past iniquities may be corrected, and sins atoned; the categories of men according to their perseverance in repentance.
The fourth pillar: On the stimulus of repentance and the way of treatment for the dissolution of the knot of persistence.
The goal of exposition will be attained through these four pillars by Allah’s will. إقرأ المزيد
