The reader: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions:
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) transmitted, in the context of the hadiths in the Book of Seeking Forgiveness:
"From Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:

Allah, the Exalted, has said: 'O son of Adam! I shall go on forgiving you so long as you pray to Me and aspire for My forgiveness whatever may be your sins. O son of Adam! I do not care even if your sins should pile up to the sky and should you beg pardon of Me, I would forgive you. O son of Adam! If you come to Me with an earthful of sins and meet Me, not associating anything with Me in worship, I will certainly grant you as much pardon as will fill the earth

قال الله تعالى : يا ابن آدم إنكَ ما دعوتني ورجوتني غفرت لكَ على ما كان منك ولا أُبالي، يا ابن آدم لو بَلغت ذنوبك عنان السماء، ثم استغفرتني غفرتُ لك ولا أُبالي، يا ابن آدم إنك لو أتيتني بِقُراب الأرض خطايا، ثم لقيتني لا تشرك بي شيئا، لأتيتك بقرابها مغفرة

Riyad as-Salihin 1878

Al-Tirmidhi narrated it and said: It is a good hadith.
And from Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

O women folk! You should give charity and be diligent in seeking Allah's forgiveness because I have seen (i.e., on the Night of the Ascension to the highest heavens) that dwellers of the Hell are women." A woman amongst them said: "Why is it that the majority of the dwellers of Hell are women?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. In spite of your lacking in wisdom and failing in religion, you are depriving the wisest of men of their intelligence." Upon this the woman asked: "What is the deficiency in our wisdom and in our religion?" He (ﷺ) replied, "Your lack of wisdom can be well judged from the fact that the evidence of two women is equal to that one man. You do not offer Salat (prayer) for some days

يا معشر النساء تصدقن، وأكثرن مِن الاستغفار، فإني رأيتكن أكثر أهل النار، قالت امرأة منهن : ما لنا أكثر أهل النار؟ قال: تكثرن اللعن، وتكفرن العشير، ما رأيت من ناقصاتِ عقلٍ ودينٍ أغلب لذي لب منكن، قالت: ما نقصان العقل والدين؟ قال : شهادة امرأتين بشهادة رجل، وتمكث الأيام لا تصلي

Riyad as-Salihin 1879

Muslim narrated it.
Chapter on explaining what Allah the Exalted has prepared for the believers in Paradise:
Allah the Exalted said:

⁽⁴⁵⁾ Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs. ⁽⁴⁶⁾ [Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]." ⁽⁴⁷⁾ And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other. ⁽⁴⁸⁾ No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.

إن المتقين في جنات وعيون * ادخلوها بسلام آمنين * ونزعنا ما في صدورهم من غل إخواناً على سرر متقابلين * لا يمسهم فيها نصب وما هم منها بمخرجين

[Al-Hijr 15:45-48]

.
And Allah the Exalted said:

⁽⁶⁸⁾ [To whom Allah will say], "O My servants, no fear will there be concerning you this Day, nor will you grieve, ⁽⁶⁹⁾ [You] who believed in Our verses and were Muslims. ⁽⁷⁰⁾ Enter Paradise, you and your kinds, delighted." ⁽⁷¹⁾ Circulated among them will be plates and vessels of gold. And therein is whatever the souls desire and [what] delights the eyes, and you will abide therein eternally. ⁽⁷²⁾ And that is Paradise which you are made to inherit for what you used to do. ⁽⁷³⁾ For you therein is much fruit from which you will eat.

يا عبادِ لا خوف عليكم اليوم ولا أنتم تحزنون * الذين آمنوا بآياتنا وكانوا مسلمين * ادخلوا الجنة أنتم وأزواجكم تُحبرون * يطاف عليهم بصحاف من ذهب وأكواب وفيها ما تشتهيه الأنفس وتلذ الأعين وأنتم فيها خالدون * وتلك الجنة التي أورثتموها بما كنتم تعملون * لكم فيها فاكهة كثيرة منها تأكلون

[Az-Zukhruf 43:68-73]

.
And Allah the Exalted said:

⁽⁵¹⁾ Indeed, the righteous will be in a secure place; ⁽⁵²⁾ Within gardens and springs, ⁽⁵³⁾ Wearing [garments of] fine silk and brocade, facing each other. ⁽⁵⁴⁾ Thus. And We will marry them to fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes. ⁽⁵⁵⁾ They will call therein for every [kind of] fruit - safe and secure. ⁽⁵⁶⁾ They will not taste death therein except the first death, and He will have protected them from the punishment of Hellfire ⁽⁵⁷⁾ As bounty from your Lord. That is what is the great attainment.

إن المتقين في مقام أمين * في جنات وعيون * يلبسون من سندس وإستبرق متقابلين * كذلك وزوجناهم بحور عين * يدعون فيها بكل فاكهة آمنين * لا يذوقون فيها الموت إلا الموتة الأولى ووقاهم عذاب الجحيم * فضلا من ربك ذلك هو الفوز العظيم

[Ad-Dukhan 44:51-57]

.
And He the Exalted said:

⁽²²⁾ Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure ⁽²³⁾ On adorned couches, observing. ⁽²⁴⁾ You will recognize in their faces the radiance of pleasure. ⁽²⁵⁾ They will be given to drink [pure] wine [which was] sealed. ⁽²⁶⁾ The last of it is musk. So for this let the competitors compete. ⁽²⁷⁾ And its mixture is of Tasneem, ⁽²⁸⁾ A spring from which those near [to Allah] drink.

إن الأبرار لفي نعيم * على الأرائك ينظرون * تعرف في وجوههم نضرة النعيم * يُسقون من رحيق مختوم * ختامه مسك وفي ذلك فليتنافس المتنافسون * ومزاجه من تسنيم * عيناً يشرب بها المقربون

[Al-Mutaffifin 83:22-28]

. The verses on this topic are numerous and well known.

The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful:
We have previously mentioned many hadiths regarding the virtue of seeking forgiveness, which al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned in his book, the last of which is in *Riyad al-Salihin*, among them:
That Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, said: .
And in it also, that Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, said: or something to that effect.
This indicates that no matter what sins a person commits, if he seeks the forgiveness of Allah the Exalted and returns to Him, then Allah the Exalted will forgive him.
Likewise, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded the women to increase in charity and seeking forgiveness, as he saw them to be the most numerous among the people of the Fire:
This indicates that seeking forgiveness is among the preventers of entering the Fire. So, O my brother, you must increase in seeking forgiveness. Increase in saying: I seek the forgiveness of Allah, O Allah, forgive me and have mercy on me, and the like of that. It is a light matter that does not harm you and is not difficult for you.
