—may Allah have mercy on him—a number of proofs from the Quran and the Sunnah demonstrating this.
It therefore befits a Muslim to repent to his Lord and turn to Him in devotion, so that his ranks may be raised, his lapses pardoned, his supplications accepted, and his station with his Lord elevated. We ask Allah in hope to decree sincere repentance for us and grant us success in every good that He loves and is pleased with.
رحمه الله جملةً من أدلَّةِ الكتاب والسنة الدَّالَّةِ على ذلك.
فحريٌّ بالمسلم أن يكون تائباً إلى ربِّه، منيباً إليه؛ لترتفعَ درجاتُه، وتُقال عثراتُه، وتُقبل دعواتُه، وتعلو منزلتُه عند ربِّه، وإنَّا لنرجو اللهَ أن يكتبَ لنا توبةً نصوحاً، وأن يوفِّقنا لكلِّ خير يُحبُّه ويرضاه.
