The major sins are those acts which have been forbidden by Allah in
the Quran and by His Messenger (SAW) in the Sunnah (practise of the
Prophet), and which have been made clear by the actions of of the
first righteous generation of Muslims, the Companions of the Prophet
(SAW).
Allah Most High says in His Glorious Book:
If you avoid the major (part) of what you have been forbidden (to do),
We will cancel out for you your (other) evil deeds and will admit you
(to Paradise) witha noble entry. (al-Nisa 4:31) Thus by this verse,
Allah Most Highhas guaranteed the Garden of Paradise to those who
avoid the major sins. And Allah Most High also says:
Those who avoid the greatest ofsins and indecencies, and forgivewhen
they are angry (al-Shra 42:37) Those who avoid the greatest sins and
indecencies, except for oversights, (will find that) surely your Lord
is ample inforgiveness. (Al-Najm 53:32) The Messenger of Allah (SAW)
said: "The five [daily] prayers, Friday to Friday, and Ramadan to
Ramadan make atonement for what has happenned since the previous one
when major sins have been avoided." It is thereforevery important to
determine exactly what the greatest vices, technically called "the
major sins" (Kaba'ir), are, in order that Muslims should avoid them.
There is some difference of opinion among scholars in this regard.
Some say these major sinsare seven, and in support of their position
they quote the tradition:"Avoid the seven noxious things"- and after
having said this, the propeht (SAW) mentioned them:"associating
anything with Allah; magic; killing one whom Allah hasdeclared
inviolate without a just case, consuming the property of an orphan,
devouring usury, turning back when the army advances, and slandering
chaste women who are believers but indiscreet." (Bukhari and Muslim)
'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas said:"Seventy is closer to their number than
seven," and indeed that is correct. The above tradition does not limit
the major sins to those mentioned in it. Rather, it points to the type
of sins which fall into the category of "major." These include those
crimes which call for a prescribed punishment (HADD; plural, HUDUD),
such as theft, fornication or adultery (ZINA), and murder; those
prohibited acts for which a warning of a severe punishment in the Next
is given in the Qur'an or the tradition; and also those deeds which
are cursed by our Prophet (SAW). These are all majorsins.
Of course, there is a gradation among them, since some are more
serious than others. We see that the Prophet (SAW) has included SHIRK
(associating someone or something with Allah) among them, and from the
text of the Qur'an we know that aperson who commits SHIRK will not his
sin be forgiven and will remain in Hell forever.
Allah Most High says: Surely, Allah does not forgive associating
anything with Him, and He forgives whatever is other than that to
whomever He wills. (al-Nisa 4:48 and 116)

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
