Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a person wears silk or drinks intoxicants in this world and then repents from it, will he wear it and drink the wine in the Hereafter?
Answer:
If he repents, Allah accepts his repentance. The one who repents from a sin is like one who has no sin. However, the believer who drinks intoxicants does not become a disbeliever; he is a believer who enters Paradise, but he is deprived of the wine of Paradise. He is deprived of the wine of Paradise. Likewise, he is deprived of silk, and likewise of the golden vessels that are forbidden to Muslims. The vessels of Paradise are of gold, so he is deprived of them on the Day of Resurrection as a punishment for him, even though he enters Paradise.
