Sins

A man asked Ibn 'Umar, "What did you hear Allah's Messenger (saws)
saying regarding the 'An-Najwa' (secret talk between Allah and His
believing worshipper on the Day of Judgment)?"

He said, "(The Prophet (saws) said), 'One of you will come close to
his Lord till He will shelter him in His screen and Say: 'Did you
commit such-and-such sin?'

The slave will say: 'Yes.' Then Allah will Say: 'Did you commit such
and such sin?' The salve will say: 'Yes'.

So Allah will make him confess (all his sins, one by one..) and then
the Lord will Say: 'I screened them (did not expose your sins) for you
in the world, and Today I forgive them all for you!' "
