Allah Ta’ala revealed to Nabi Daawood (alayhis salaam): “O Daawood! Say to Bani Israaeel: ‘How do you know that I have forgiven your sins? You have abandoned remorse (on the basis of this false assumption). I take oath by My Might and Splendour! On the Day of Qiyaamah I shall display everyone’s sins to him.’
While one should entertain the hope of forgiveness, over-confidence which leads to recklessness and obliviousness (ghaflat) indicate that the sins have not been forgiven. Along with hope there should be a lingering fear and trepidation. This attitude prevents from audacious commission of sin.
