THE SINNER'S REQUEST

A man approached Moses and said to him, "you are going to the mountain to speak to Allah. I have sinned my whole life. Ask Him if I will be forgiven or punished."
Some time later, Moses came down from the mountain. The man said, "Did you ask Him?"
Moses said, "yes, I asked Him"
"What did Allah say?"
"Allah said, 'Tell my servant-"
The man interrupted, "stop I don't care if Allah send me to hell or punishes me with the greatest punishment on earth. But He has called me His servant, and if He thinks of me as His servant, then surely I am close to Him."
