Comparing an ignorant person with a learned one

Seventy sins of an ignorant person may be forgiven before only one sin of a learned person is forgiven.

Hawzah News Agency - Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashim has narrated from his father from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from al-Minqari from Hafs ibn Ghiyath from abu ‘Abdallah (a.s) who has said the following.

يُغْفَرُ لِلْجَاهِلِ سَبْعُونَ ذَنْباً قَبْلَ أَنْ يُغْفَرَ لِلْعَالِمِ ذَنْبٌ وَاحِدٌ.

“Seventy sins of an ignorant person may be forgiven before only one sin of a learned person is forgiven.”

Al-Kāfi, v.1, Book 2, Chapter 15
