Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Can a person be a close friend of Allah and yet fall into sin?

Answer:
Yes, and his inclination, if his status as a close friend of Allah is complete, even if there is a deficiency in him, and enmity toward Allah the Exalted coexists in him according to the degree of that deficiency.
