Reply to the Second Objection
From the traditions of the Pure Imams (a.s.) it is clear that they are not in favour of mentioning the exact number of Greater Sins, nor do they describe in detail the Greater Sins. Although time and again they do indicate the method of determining whether an act is a Greater Sin or not is exemplified by the already quoted tradition from Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.):
“The Greater Sins are those (sins) the doer of (those who commit them) are promised the fire of Hell by Allah.”
The reason for the Imam (a.s.) not to be specific is the same as stated above in the reply to the First objection.
