Telling Your Sins To Others

Narrated by Abu Huraira (Radi-Allahu ‘anhu): I heard Allah’s Apostle (Sallallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam) saying. “All the sins of my followers will be forgiven except those of the Mujahirin (those who commit a sin openly or disclose their sins to the people). An example of such disclosure is that a person commits a sin at night and though Allah screens it from the public, then he comes in the morning, and says, ‘O so-and-so, I did such-and-such (evil) deed yesterday,’ though he spent his night screened by his Lord (none knowing about his sin) and in the morning he removes Allah’s screen from himself.”
