F. AVOIDING SINFUL ACTS 1. Allah has a sense of jealousy so He doesn’t like when His servants perform sinful acts

١٢٧. عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللّٰهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ:

«إِنَّ اللّٰهَ يَغَارُ وَغَيْرَةُ اللّٰهِ أَنْ يَأْتِىَ الْمُؤْمِنُ مَا حَرَّمَ اللّٰهُ».

127. It is narrated from Abu Huraira (r.a.) that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said:

“Allah has a sense of ghira (jealousy), and Allah’s sense of ghira is provoked when a believer does something which Allah has prohibited.” (Bukhari, Nikah, 107; Muslim, Tawbah, 36. Also see Tirmidhi, Rada, 14/1168; Ahmad, II, 519, 536, 539)
