Does "God's prohibitions" in the noble Hadith refer to all sins, or only one sin?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The meaning of "God's prohibitions" includes everything God has forbidden, whether major or minor. The warning mentioned in the applies to the general perpetrator of sins, without distinguishing between few and many. Perhaps the wisdom behind this is for the believer to remain cautious of all sins, and not to belittle minor ones, because some people belittle them and may commit them based on their assumption of the lightness of their prohibition. Nevertheless, one who commits many sins is not equal to one who commits few, nor is one who repents and wavers equal to one who is indifferent.
