free from sin

1 Allah pardons all my sins so that I will return [free from sin] as on the day my mother bore me.
Narrated Abu Huraira ( May Allah be pleased with him ): Allah's Messenger ( May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) said,
"whoever falls ill even for one night but he patiently endured the pain and is pleased with Allah, he will return [free from sin] as on the day his mother bore him."

Ibn Mas'ud ( May Allah be pleased with him ) reported:
A man kissed a woman. So he came to the Messenger of Allah ( may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) and informed him about it. Then Allah revealed this Ayah: "And perform the Salat, between the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds efface the evil deeds (i.e., minor sins)." (11:114) The man asked the Messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, whether this applies to him only. The Messenger of Allah ( may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) said, "It applies to all of my Ummah."
[ Al-Bukhari and Muslim ]
Anas bin Malik ( May Allah be pleased with him ) reported:
A man came to the Prophet ( may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have committed a sin liable of ordained punishment. So execute punishment on me". Messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, did not ask him about it, and then came the time for offering the prayer. So he performed Salat with the Messenger of Allah. When Messenger of Allah finished Salat, the man stood up and said: "O Messenger of Allah! I have committed a sin. So execute the Ordinance of Allah upon me". He, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, asked, "Have you performed Salat with us?" "Yes", he replied. The Messenger of Allah ( may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) said, "Verily, Allah has forgiven you".
