Sahih Muslim 2703 (Book 48, Hadith 55) #13932
Seeking Repentance for Mercy

SUMMARY: Allah will show mercy to those who seek repentance before the Day of Resurrection.

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger as saying: He who seeks repentance (from the Lord) before the rising of the sun from the west (before the Day of Resurrection), Allah turns to him with Mercy.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ يَعْنِي سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ حَيَّانَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الأَشَجُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ غِيَاثٍ - كُلُّهُمْ عَنْ هِشَامٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ مَنْ تَابَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا تَابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Seek repentance from Allah sincerely in order to receive His mercy.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about seeking repentance from Allah and how it can lead to His mercy. It was narrated by Abu Huraira, a companion of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, that he said that whoever seeks repentance before the rising of the sun from the west, meaning before the Day of Judgment or Resurrection, Allah will turn to him with mercy. This means that if someone sincerely repents for their sins and asks for forgiveness from Allah then He will forgive them and show them mercy. This is an important reminder for all Muslims as it encourages us to always seek forgiveness and repent whenever we make mistakes or sin in order to receive His mercy.
