Explanation of the author's statement: It contains issues. The first: warning against attributing partners to Allah.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then the author (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “It contains issues. The first is the warning against attributing partners to Allah” Where is this taken from, Abdullah? Yes.
The student: From the man’s saying: “By Allah, Allah will not forgive you.”
The Shaykh : No, yes, 'Ammar.
The student: … and it nullified your deed…
The Shaykh : Yes, and the nullification of the deed is undoubtedly a matter from which one must guard. Then, his saying: The interrogation here is for denial.
Now, “The second issue is that the Fire is closer to one of us than the strap of his sandal.
And the third is that Paradise is like that. " Where do you get that from, Ya 'Adil?
The student: The man may enter Paradise. So when he said…
The Shaykh : Now, what is the strap of the sandal?
The student: … the sandal.
The Shaykh : The sandal is the one that… its strap.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Yes, meaning the leather strip that is between the big toe and the other toes; this is the strap. Now, what is intended by this simile, ya Sami? That it is closer than the strap of the sandal.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Or the approximation of Paradise, and that it may be close to a person while he is not aware, and likewise the Fire. This is what the author (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned. These two issues, the second and the third, are a hadith established in Sahih al-Bukhari that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 6488
Now, “The fourth: it contains a witness to his saying”
The student: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you
To his sayingJami` at-Tirmidhi 2314Sahih (Darussalam) to the end. What is the hadith that the author is referring to?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : No, the hadith was not mentioned, but in another hadith.
The student:
The Shaykh : Yes, yes, orSahih Muslim 2988a And this contains a warning against the slip of the tongue, because the tongue may slip and thereby a person may be destroyed. For this reason, the Prophet (may the prayer and peace of Allah be upon him) said: Sahih al-Bukhari 6474 Or he said: Because the danger of this tongue is great. Mu'adh said to the Messenger (may the prayer and peace of Allah be upon him) when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: As-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Nasa'i 65:415 So there is a severe warning against the slip of the tongue, especially if this slip becomes a cause for people to follow him and take him as an example, as happens with some callers to misguidance, and may Allah protect us from that. Then that becomes a greater sin, because he will bear his own sin and the sin of whoever follows him until the Day of Resurrection.
“The fifth: that a man may be forgiven for a reason that is among the most difficult matters for him” Yes.
The student: When the man said, he said to him…
The Shaykh : That he was forgiven because of this rebuke. And this issue is not very clear to me. I say it does not appear to me that its aspect is clear from the hadith. However, there is no doubt that a person may be forgiven for something that is among the most difficult matters for him, such as jihad in the path of Allah.[Al-Baqarah 2:216] This is a settled matter, but taking it from this hadith is what is heavy for me.
The student: From the man’s saying: “By Allah, Allah will not forgive you.”
The Shaykh : No, yes, 'Ammar.
The student: … and it nullified your deed…
The Shaykh : Yes, and the nullification of the deed is undoubtedly a matter from which one must guard. Then, his saying:
who is it that
من ذا الذيNow, “The second issue is that the Fire is closer to one of us than the strap of his sandal.
And the third is that Paradise is like that. " Where do you get that from, Ya 'Adil?
The student: The man may enter Paradise. So when he said…
The Shaykh : Now, what is the strap of the sandal?

These two issues, the second and the third, are a hadith established in Sahih al-Bukhari that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Paradise is nearer to any of you than the Shirak (leather strap) of his shoe, and so is the (Hell) Fire.
الجنة أقرب إلى أحدكم من شراك نعله والنار مثل ذلكNow, “The fourth: it contains a witness to his saying”
The student: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you
To his saying
Indeed a man may utter a statement
إن الرجل ليتكلم بالكلمةThe student: ...
The Shaykh : No, the hadith was not mentioned, but in another hadith.
The student:
Indeed, a man may speak a word without giving it a thought, and it will cause him to fall into Hellfire seventy autumns.
إن الرجل ليتكلم بالكلمة لا يلقي لها بالا تهوي به في جهنم سبعين خريفاًThe Shaykh : Yes, yes, or
farther than the distance between the east and the west
أبعد ما بين المشرق والمغربWhoever can guarantee (the chastity of) what is between his two jaw-bones and what is between his two legs
من يضمن لي ما بين لحييه ورجليهI will guarantee for him Paradise.
فخذيه أضمن له الجنةShall I inform you of the key to all that? I said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah. So he took his own tongue—held it—and said: “Hold this back.” I said: O Messenger of Allah, are we not held accountable for what we speak? He said: “May your mother mourn you, O Mu'adh! What causes people to fall into the Fire on their faces— or he said: on their snouts—except the harvest of their tongues?”
أفلا أخبرك بملاك ذلك كله قلت : بلى يا رسول الله فأخذ بلسان نفسه - أمسكه - وقال: كف عليك هذا، قلت يا رسول الله وإنا لمؤاخذون بما نتكلم به ، قال: ثكلتك أمك يا معاذ وهل يكب الناس في النار على وجوههم، - أو قال : على مناخرهم - إلا حصائد ألسنتهم“The fifth: that a man may be forgiven for a reason that is among the most difficult matters for him” Yes.
