Abu Nu’aym reported: Sufyan ibn ‘Uyaynah, may Allah have mercy on him, said, “Whoever commits a sin due to desire, hope for his repentance. Verily, Adam, upon him be peace, disobeyed due to desire and he was forgiven. If a sin is committed due to pride, fear that the perpetrator may be cursed. Verily, Iblis disobeyed due to pride and he was cursed.”

عن أبي نعيم عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ رحمه الله قَالَ مَنْ كَانَتْ مَعْصِيَتُهُ فِي الشَّهْوَةِ فَارْجُ لَهُ التَّوْبَةَ فَإِنَّ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ عَصَى مُشْتَهِيًا فَغُفِرَ لَهُ وَإِذَا كَانَتْ مَعْصِيَتُهُ فِي كِبْرٍ فَاحْشَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ اللَّعْنَةَ فَإِنَّ إِبْلِيسَ عَصَى مُسْتَكْبِرًا فَلُعِنَ
