Big SINS
Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet (s) said: "The biggest of al-Kabair (the great sins) are:
(1) to join others as partners with Allah,
(2) to murder a human being,
(3) to be undutiful to one'a parents,
(4) and to make a false statement," or said, "to give a false witness." [Sahih al-Bukhari: Vol. 9, #10]Narrated Ubada bin As-Samit (r), who took part in the battle of Badr and was a Naqib (a person heading a group of six persons), on the night of Al-Aqaba pledge: Allah's Apostle (s) said while a group of his companions were around him, "Swear allegiance to me for:
1. Not to join anything in worship along with Allah.
2. Not to steal.
3. Not to commit adultery
4. Not to kill your children
5. Not to accuse an innocent person (and to spread such an accusation among people)
6. Not to be disobedient (when instructed) to do good deed." [Sahih al-Bukhari: Vol. 1: #17: The Book of Belief]There is another list of things that have definitive negative consequences and we should free ourselves from those. Following (this is an incomplete list) are the people who either WILL NOT enter the Paradise or WILL NOT smell of it.
Abu Hurairah (r) reported the Apostle of Allah (s) as saying: "If anyone acquires knowledge of things by which Allah's good pleasure is sought, but acquires it only to get some worldly benefit, he will not even smell the 'arf (fragrance) of Paradise." [Sunan Abu Dawood; Vol. 3, 3656]
Hudhaifah reported the Apostle of Allah (s) as saying: "A mischief-maker will not enter paradise." [Sunan Abu Dawood; vol. 3, #4853]
Narrated Ma'qil: I heard the Prophet (s) saying, "Any person whom Allah has given authority of ruling some people and he does not look after them in an honest manner will never feel even the smell of Paradise." [Sahih al-Bukhari; Vol. 9, #264, #265]
Narrated Jubair bin Mu'tin that he heard the Prophet (s) saying, "The person who severs the bond of kinship will not enter Paradise." [Sahih al-Bukhari: Vol. 8, #13]
