[Machine] In His saying, "those who avoid the major sins and immoralities," Allah [glorified and exalted be He] states that the greatest of the major sins is associating partners with Allah, because Allah has said, "Whoever associates partners with Allah has certainly forbidden Paradise to him." Another major sin is despairing of the mercy of Allah, as Allah says, "None despairs of the mercy of Allah except for the disbelieving people." Another major sin is scheming against Allah, because Allah says, "No one feels secure from the plan of Allah except those who are the losers." Disobeying one's parents is also among the major sins, as Allah has made the disobedient one oppressive and wretched. Killing oneself is forbidden except in cases of justice, as Allah, glorified be He, says, "So its recompense is Hell." Throwing accusations at chaste women is also a major sin, as Allah, the Majestic, says, "They are cursed in this world and the Hereafter and for them is a great punishment." Consuming the wealth of orphans is a major sin, as Allah, glorified be He, says, "They do not consume it except into fire. And they will be burned therein." Fleeing from battle is a major sin, for Allah, may He be exalted, says, "And whoever turns his back to them on such a day, unless swerving as a strategy of war or joining another company. Such has indeed returned with anger upon him from Allah, and his refuge is Hell - and wretched is the destination." Taking usury is a major sin, as Allah, the Most High, says, "Indeed, those who consume interest cannot stand [on the Day of Resurrection] except as one stands who is being beaten by Satan into insanity." Witchcraft and sorcery are among the major sins, as Allah, exalted be He, says, "But they do not appraise Allah with true appraisal." Adultery is a major sin, as Allah says, "He will be flung on the Day of Judgment to be dipped in fire and be scorched to a horrible lodging." Breaking oaths is a major sin, as Allah, exalted be He, says, "And whoever breaks an oath brings upon himself the burden of sin." Withholding the obligatory charity is a major sin, as Allah, the Most High, says, "So let their chattels and their children not impress you. Allah only intends to punish them through them." Bearing false witness is a major sin, as Allah, exalted be He, says, "And whoever conceals it - indeed, his heart is sinful." Drinking alcohol is a major sin, as Allah, exalted be He, prohibited it and declared it impure. Deliberately abandoning prayer or any of what Allah has enjoined is a major sin, because the Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, "Whoever abandons prayer willfully has disbelieved and removed the protective covering of Allah from himself." Breaking covenants and cutting off ties of kinship are major sins, as
