A Companion’s Honest Mistake & Unshakable Repentance
In the time of the Prophet ï·º, a Companion named Abu Lubaba (RA) had a deep connection with the Jewish tribe Banu Quraiza. When the tribe was besieged, they sought his advice about their fate. Out of instinct and subconscious loyalty, he gave them a hint—something he instantly regretted.
It wasn’t betrayal. It wasn’t intentional. But it was a mistake.
The weight of his action pressed heavily on his heart. Realizing his error, Abu Lubaba (RA) rushed to the mosque and tied himself to a pole, vowing not to free himself until Allah accepted his repentance. He remained there for days—only untied by his wife during meal times—punishing himself out of sheer remorse.
A Divine Response
Days passed. Then, one day, the Prophet ï·º delivered the ultimate good news—Allah had accepted his repentance! A verse was revealed in the Qur’an, immortalizing his story as a lesson for all who seek forgiveness.
This powerful moment serves as a beacon of hope for every believer. No matter how grave our mistakes, Allah’s mercy is always within reach—if we turn to Him with a sincere heart.
