''For such, the reward is forgiveness from their Lord, and Gardens with rivers flowing underneath (Paradise), wherein they shall abide forever. How excellent is the reward for the doers (who do righteous deeds according to Allah's orders).'' In the Tafsir of Ibn Katheer regarding these verses and the Muhsinun it is stated: ''They repent from their error, return to Allah before death, do not insist on error, and if they err again, they repent from it.'' So this is the condition of Ahlus-Sunnah, ( those who perform righteous deeds according to Allah's orders) whenever they commit sins they repent, this is in opposition to the Ahl- Bid'ah who fail to repent from their sinful innovations as they actually believe that they are performing good deeds. And Allah knows best. As salamu alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuh,

I understood it this way then Allahu A'lam. The sinners of ahlussunnah after commiting sins repent to Allah Subhanawat'ala so if Allah wills he forgives them. As for the sinners of bid'a they continue dioing the Sin (bid'a thinking that it is sunnah) therefor they dont realise to be repented!! and the sin groves.

In that regard, can u please let me know which Tabi'ee did Imam Ahmed rahimahullah meet to be considered from the Atba ut Tabi'een? BaarakAllahu feekum.
