Do not despair of Allaah’s Mercy: In the Qur’aan, Allaah تعالى mentioned the faults and mistakes of his Prophets, not because He تعالى wanted to humiliate or dishonor them, but so that the people could connect and relate to them, and not despair and lose hope in His Mercy. When a person commits a sin or does something really bad, and he now wants to repent, Shaitaan approaches him and says to him: “How do you expect Allaah to forgive you after you have done such a Major sin?”, or “Do you think you will be forgiven after you have done such-and-such?” Whenever a person will try to repent, Shaitaan will keep stirring such doubts in his heart to discourage him from turning to Allaah in repentance and from seeking His forgiveness. So, when you read in the Qur’aan that Aadam عليه السلام disobeyed Allaah while he was in Paradise, or when Yunus عليه السلام left his people and went off in anger, this helps in dispersing and weakening the plots of Shaitaan and getting rid of his evil whispers. And here it becomes clear to us the Wisdom of Allaah. Allaah تعالى did not mention the mistakes of his Prophets to humiliate them, but He تعالى did so, so that the people get encouraged to turn to Allaah in repentance, and not despair of His Mercy.
