Seeking forgiveness

Zuhd

Sunan Ibn Mājah 4244

إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا أَذْنَبَ كَانَتْ نُكْتَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ فِي قَلْبِهِ فَإِنْ تَابَ وَنَزَعَ وَاسْتَغْفَرَ صُقِلَ قَلْبُهُ فَإِنْ زَادَ زَادَتْ فَذَلِكَ الرَّانُ الَّذِي ذَكَرَهُ اللَّهُ فِي كِتَابِهِ {كَلاَّ بَلْ رَانَ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ مَا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ}

inna al-muʾmina idhā adhnaba kānat nuktatun sawdāʾu fī qalbihi fa-in tāba wanazaʿa wāstaghfara ṣuqila qalbuhu fa-in zāda zādat fadhalika ar-rānu adh-dhī dhakarah Allāh fī kitābihi kallā bal rāna ʿalā qulūbihim mā kānūā yaksibūna

The full narration

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:“When the believer commits sin, a black spot appears on his heart. If he repents and gives up that sin and seeks forgiveness, his heart will be polished. But if (the sin) increases, (the black spot) increases. That is the Ran that Allah mentions in His Book: “Nay! But on their hearts is the Ran (covering of sins and evil deeds) which they used to earn.” [83:]
