[1]
(V.78:31) Muttaqûn: means pious believer of Islamic Monotheism who fear
Allâh much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has
forbidden) and love Allâh much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has
ordained).
[2]
(V.78:36) a) Islâm demolishes all the previous evil deeds and so do migration
(for Allâh’s sake) and Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah). (Sahih Muslim,
Vol.1, Chapter 52, Page 18).
b) What is said regarding the superiority of a person who embraces Islâm
sincerely:
Narrated Abu Sa‘îd Al-Khudri رضي
الله عنه: Allâh’s Messenger
صلى الله عليه
وسلم said, "If a person embraces Islâm sincerely,
then Allâh shall forgive all his past sins, and after that starts the
settlement of accounts: the reward of his good deeds will be ten times to seven
hundred times for each good deed, and an evil deed will be recorded as it is
unless Allâh forgives it." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol.1, Hadith No.
40A).
Narrated Abu Hurairah رضي الله
عنه: Allâh’s Messenger صلى
الله عليه
وسلم said: "If any one of you improves (follows
strictly) his Islâmic religion, then his good deeds will be rewarded ten times
to seven hundred times for each good deed and a bad deed will be recorded as it
is." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol.1, Hadith No. 40B).
