*Do You Sin in private?*

Allah says in Surah An Nisaa Ayah 108

*يَسْتَخْفُوْنَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَ لاَ يَسْتَخْفُوْنَ مِنَ اللهِ وَهُوَ مَعَهُمْ إِذْ يُبَيِّتُوْنَ مَا لاَ يَرْضٰى مِنَ الْقَوْلِ*

_They conceal their [evil intentions and deeds] from the people, but they cannot conceal [them] from Allah, and he is with them [in knowledge] when they spend the night in such, as He does not approve of speech._

"They conceal from the people but they cannot conceal from Allah ﷻ" is chastising the hypocrites because they hide their evil works from the people so that they will not criticize them. 

Yet, the hypocrites disclose this evil with Allah ﷻ, Who has perfect watch over their secrets and knows what is in their hearts. 

This is why Allah ﷻ said,

*وَهُوَ مَعَهُمْ إِذْ يُبَيِّتُونَ مَا لاَ يَرْضَى مِنَ الْقَوْلِ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ مُحِيطاً*

_for He is with them [In Knowledge], when they plot by night in words that He does not approve. And Allah ever encompasses what they do._

[4:108]

Time to reflect!

Although this was addressed to the Munaafiqeen, as Muslims, sometimes, we may have traces of Nifaaq within us. Where we sin privately, hidden away from people, forgetting Allah ﷻ is watching.

We might close our doors in order to prevent our family from seeing what we are doing. 

But we are forgetting that Allah ﷻ the creator of All things can see us, even in the darkness, doing Haraam.

Do you think He cannot see you in the dark doing Haram on your phone or laptop?

And as Allah ﷻ himself clarifies in Surah Al An'aam Ayah 59

*وَمَا تَسْقُطُ مِن وَرَقَةٍ إِلاَّ يَعْلَمُهَا*

_Not a leaf falls but he knows it_

He knows the movements of everything including inanimate things and the affairs of everyone, Mankind and Jinnkind.

Oh Ibn Adam! Do not forget Allah is Al Hakim, just as you cannot outrun Allah on Qiyamah, you cannot hide from him in Dunya, so repent to him.

May Allah ﷻ have Mercy on us and guide us through the right path.

*آمين*
