A man came to Imam Hussein (A.S) and said, "I frequently disobey Allah (S.W.T) and cannot prevent myself from sins; therefore, please, give me an advice O son of messenger of Allah (S.W.T) so that I may keep away from sins."
Do you want to stay away from Sins? Imam Hussein (A.S): "Do five things and then commit sins as much as you want."
Sinner: "Please tell me what those five things are."
Imam Hussein (A.S): "[1] Do not eat from the provisions of Allah (S.W.T), and then do whatever you like."
Sinner: "Then what will I be able to eat because whatever there is in his universe is from Allah (S.W.T)?"
Imam Hussein (A.S): "[2] Then leave the earth of Allah (S.W.T), and then do whatever you like."
Sinner: "O Imam, this is even more difficult than the first! If I leave the earth, then where would I live? Because all belongs to Allah (S.W.T)."
Imam Hussein (A.S): "[3] Then find a place where Allah (S.W.T) cannot see you, and then do whatever you like."
Sinner: "But, O Imam, nothing is hidden from Allah (S.W.T)."
Imam Hussein (A.S): [4] Then do one thing, when the angel of death (Izrail) comes to you, keep him away from yourself, and then do whatever you like. And if you cannot do that, then lastly, [5] do not enter the Hell when Allah (S.W.T) sends you into it. If you can do that, then go and commit whatever sins you like."
Sinner: "That's it, O son of messenger of Allah (S.W.T)! From today, Allah (S.W.T) will not find me in a situation which He dislikes."
