[15].Surah Al-Hjir [The Rocky Tract]: Ayat 83-85

Ayat 83. But As-Saîhah (torment - awful cry etc.) overtook them in the early morning (of the fourth day of their promised punishment days).
Ayat 84. And all that which they used to earn availed them not.
Ayat 85. And We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them except with truth, and the Hour is surely coming, so overlook (O Muhammad   [SAWW](PBUH), their faults with gracious forgiveness. [This was before the ordainment of Jihad holy fighting in Allah's Cause].
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah  [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Follow the Right Path of Faith strictly, and be steadfast; and keep in mind that none of you can achieve salvation through his (good) actions.'' Someone asked, "Not even you, O Messenger of Allah?'' He  [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Not even me, unless Allah grants me His Mercy and Grace".[Muslim Book 39, Chapter 15, Hadith # 6762].


This Hadith tells us that although the importance of Faith and its practice is beyond any shadow of doubt, because this is the only way to attain His Favours and Blessings, but one should not entirely depend upon practice only because any shortcoming (which one does not even know) can ruin a good deed. It is, therefore, essential that we also pray that our good deeds are accepted by Allah and that He grants us His Infinite Mercy and sincerity because even the greatest noble deed is invalid without it.
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Hjir Ayat 85.so overlook (O Muhammad  [SAWW](PBUH), their faults with gracious forgiveness.
