Its Middle is Forgiveness

One day when he (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) was giving the Friday khutbah, he climbed up his mimbar, he climbed up the pulpit - and his pulpit had 3 steps to it. And so he climbed up the first pulpit and he said out loud Ameen. Then he climbed up the second and he said Ameen. Then he climbed up the third and he said Ameen. So the companions were confused and they said: Oh! Messenger of Allah we have never seen you say Ameen every time you climb the pulpit; this is the first time we have heard you say Ameen. What was the reason for this? The Prophet (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said: When I was climbing up the pulpit, Jibreel (AS) came to me and told me: O Muhammad (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam)! Anyone in your nation who manages to be alive when Ramadan comes & yet cannot get his sins forgiven, then may he perish in the fire of Hell. Say Ameen. So the Prophet (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said Ameen. Then he climbed the second step, Jibreel said: O Muhammad (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam)! Anyone who manages to catch Laylatul Qadr & he does not manage to get his sins forgiven, may he perish in the fire of hell. Say ameen. So the Prophet (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said ameen. And then he climbed the third one and he said: O Muhammad (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam)! Anyone of your ummah who manages to catch his parents one of them or both when they are elderly and they need his help and he is not able to service them properly and get his sins forgiven then may he perish. Say ameen. And so he (Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said ameen. (link)
