It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever says“La ilaha illallah wahdahu la sharika lahu”(There is no god but Allah, He is alone, He has no partner), he will enter Paradise. I said: Even if he has committed adultery and theft? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Even if he has committed adultery and theft. I asked again: Even if he has committed adultery and theft? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Even if he has committed adultery and theft. I said: Even if he has committed adultery and theft? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Even if he has committed adultery and theft, even if Abu Darda’s nose is rubbed in dust. He says: Then I left from there and began announcing this hadith among the people. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) met me, he said: Go back to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), if people come to know of this, they will rely on it (and abandon deeds). So I returned and informed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: Umar has spoken the truth.
