Allah's Mercy is Greater than Your Sin [Hikam 49]

"Let no sin reach such proportions in your eyes that it cuts you off from having a good opinion of God, for, indeed, whoever knows his Lord considers his sin as paltry next to His generosity". (Hikam 49 Page 97) The Shaykh discusses the second part of the wisdom, the need for one to continue to have great hope in Allah Most High when overcome with the gloom of ones sins. The following quraanic verse is mentioned " Tell My Servants, I am the Most- Forgiving, the Very Merciful" (Surah Al Hijr: 49)
