If the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who does a certain matter, does that mean that this matter is among the major sins?

Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: If the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who does a certain matter, does that mean that this matter is among the major sins?

Answer:
Without a doubt, this is one of the criteria for a major sin. If Allah curses the one who does an act, or if the Messenger curses him, that is evidence that it is a major sin, because a minor sin is not met with a curse; one is forbidden from it, but one is not cursed for it.
