Sahih Muslim 190a (Book 1, Hadith 373) #7638
Rewarding Minor Sins on the Day of Judgement

SUMMARY: On the Day of Judgement, a person will be presented with their minor sins and rewarded for them with good deeds.

Abu Dharr reported that Allah's Messenger said: I know the last of the inhabitants of Paradise to enter it and the last of the inhabitants of Hell to come out of it. He is a man who would be brought on the Day of Resurrection and it will be said: Present his minor sins to him, and withhold from him his serious sins. Then the minor sins would be placed before him, and it would be said: On such and such a day you did so and so and on such and such a day you did so and so. He would say: Yes. It will not be possible for him to deny, while he would be afraid lest serious sins should be presented before him. It would be said to him: In place of every evil deed you will have a good deed. He will say: My Lord! I have done things I do not see here. I indeed saw the Messenger of Allah laugh till his front teeth were exposed.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنِ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ إِنِّي لأَعْلَمُ آخِرَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ دُخُولاً الْجَنَّةَ وَآخِرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ خُرُوجًا مِنْهَا رَجُلٌ يُؤْتَى بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيُقَالُ اعْرِضُوا عَلَيْهِ صِغَارَ ذُنُوبِهِ وَارْفَعُوا عَنْهُ كِبَارَهَا ‏.‏ فَتُعْرَضُ عَلَيْهِ صِغَارُ ذُنُوبِهِ فَيُقَالُ عَمِلْتَ يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا كَذَا وَكَذَا وَعَمِلْتَ يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا كَذَا وَكَذَا ‏.‏ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ ‏.‏ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُنْكِرَ وَهُوَ مُشْفِقٌ مِنْ كِبَارِ ذُنُوبِهِ أَنْ تُعْرَضَ عَلَيْهِ ‏.‏ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ فَإِنَّ لَكَ مَكَانَ كُلِّ سَيِّئَةٍ حَسَنَةً ‏.‏ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّ قَدْ عَمِلْتُ أَشْيَاءَ لاَ أَرَاهَا هَا هُنَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ضَحِكَ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Strive for righteousness no matter what situation you're in or what mistakes you've made previously

EXPLANATIONS:
On the Day of Judgement, every person will be presented with their minor sins and rewarded for them with good deeds. This hadith was narrated by Abu Dharr who reported that Allah's Messenger said that he knew the last person to enter Paradise and the last to leave Hell. He would be brought before Allah on the day of judgement and his minor sins would be placed before him. He wouldn't be able to deny any of these sins as they were all true but he would fear that his major sins may also come up in front of him. However, it is promised that in place of every evil deed he has done, there will be a good deed given to him as reward instead. The Prophet Muhammad was so happy at this news that he laughed until his front teeth were exposed! This hadith teaches us about how even our small actions are not forgotten by Allah and how we can still receive rewards from Him even if we have committed some wrongdoings in our lives. It also shows us how important it is to always strive for righteousness no matter what situation we are in or what mistakes we have made previously because Allah is always willing to forgive us if we sincerely repent for our wrongdoings!
