1.         A habitual drunkard

2.         The one who is disobedient to parents

3.         The one who commits adultery

4.         The one who cuts-off relations

5.         The one who sketches portraits

6.         The tale-bearer. (Fadāil-ul-Awqāt, pp. 130, vol. 1, Hadees 27)

In some other narrations polytheists, one who harbours ill will against his fellow beings, killer, wizard, one who lowers his pyjamas or Tehband below his ankles (with arrogance), one who has malice and enmity with Muslims are also deprived of forgiveness in this night.

If someone has indulged in any of the above mentioned evil deeds, he should repent from the core of his heart for that particular sin and for all the sins in general as well, rather, he should firmly repent right now without any delay.

In order to have steadfastness in repentance, join the Madani environment of Dawateislami.
