Arabic text

محمد بن أبي عمير عن سلمة صاحب السابري عن جابر عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: من تاب في سنة موته تاب الله عليه ثم قال: وان السنة لكثير من تاب في شهر موته تاب الله عليه ثم قال: وان الشهر لكثير، من تاب في يوم موته تاب الله عليه ثم قال: وان يوما لكثير، من تاب قبل موته بساعة تاب الله عليه ثم قال: وان الساعة لكثير، من تاب وقد بلغت نفسه هيهنا - وأشار بيده إلى حلقه - تاب الله عليه.

Translation

4.Muḥammad ibn Abī ʿUmayr narrated from Salamah Ṣāḥib al Sābirī,[1] from Jābir, from Abū Jaʿfar (a) who said, “The Messenger of Allah (ṣ) said, ‘Whoever repents in the year of his death, Allah forgives him.’ Then he said, ‘Verily a year is too long. Whoever repents in the month of his death, Allah forgives him.’ Then he said, ‘Verily a month is too long. Whoever repents on the day of his death, Allah forgives him.’ Then he said, ‘Verily a day is [still] long. Whoever repents an hour before his death, Allah forgives him.’ Then he said, ‘Verily [even] an hour is long. Whoever repents when his soul reaches here – and he pointed with his hand to his throat – Allah forgives him!’’[2]
