Chapter on Recognizing the Major Sins for Which Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty, Has Threatened with Hellfire
وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "مَنِ اِجْتَنَبَ اَلْكَبَائِرَ كَفَّرَ اَللَّهُ عَنْهُ جَمِيعَ ذُنُوبِهِ وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ: إِنْ تَجْتَنِبُوا كَبٰائِرَ مٰا تُنْهَوْنَ عَنْهُ نُكَفِّرْ عَنْكُمْ سَيِّئٰاتِكُمْ وَ نُدْخِلْكُمْ مُدْخَلاً كَرِيماً "
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Whoever avoids the major sins, Allah سبحانه وتعالى will forgive all his other sins. This is based on the saying of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Mighty and Majestic: 'If you avoid the major sins which you are forbidden, We will remove from you your lesser sins and admit you to a noble entrance.'" (Surah An-Nisa 4:31)
