Allah Ta'ala exposing people's sins on the day of Qiyaamah
Question
I’ve heard from many people that all our sins will be presented in front of everyone. Is this true? As Allah سبحانه وتعالى is known as السّتّار
Answer
Among the attributes of Allah Ta'ala is that Allah Ta'ala is As-Sattaar - the One who conceals the sins of His servants, and among the attributes of Allah Ta'ala is that He is Muzill- the One who disgraces people and reveals their condition before others.
Hence, for those who are obedient to Allah Ta'ala, Allah Ta'ala will conceal their sins, and for those who are sinners and violate and defy Allah Ta'ala, Allah Ta'ala will disgrace them on the day of Qiyaamah and reveal and expose their sins before others.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
