Sunan an-Nasai 4872 (Book 46, Hadith 3) #19405
The Power of Repentance

SUMMARY: This hadith emphasizes that committing sins such as zina (adultery), stealing, and drinking alcohol will cause one to lose their faith in Allah. However, if they repent for their sins, Allah will accept their repentance.

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "No one who commits Zina is a believer at the moment when he is committing Zina; no one who steals is a believer at the moment when he is stealing; no one who drinks wine is a believer at the moment when he is drinking it". - And he mentioned a fourth but I (the narrator) have forgotten it - "When he does that the yoke of Islam is shed from his neck, but if he repents, Allah accepts his repentance".
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْمَرْوَزِيُّ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ - عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ لاَ يَزْنِي الزَّانِي حِينَ يَزْنِي وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلاَ يَسْرِقُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلاَ يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَذَكَرَ رَابِعَةً فَنَسِيتُهَا فَإِذَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ خَلَعَ رِبْقَةَ الإِسْلاَمِ مِنْ عُنُقِهِ فَإِنْ تَابَ تَابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the power of repentance and how it can help us stay connected to our faith in Allah. It was narrated by Abu Hurairah that no one who commits zina, steals or drinks wine is a believer at the moment when they are doing these things. He also mentioned a fourth sin but it has been forgotten by the narrator. When someone commits these sins, it causes them to lose their faith in Allah and disconnect from Islam. However, if they repent for their sins then Allah will accept their repentance and forgive them for what they have done wrong. This hadith teaches us that even though we may make mistakes or do something wrong, we should never give up hope because with sincere repentance comes forgiveness from Allah which can help us stay connected to our faith in Him.
