The sins that change graces are transgression. The sins that cause regret are murder. The sins that cause wraths to descend is oppression. The sins that violate protections, which are the veils, is the drinking of wine. The ones that restrain sustenance is fornication. The ones that cause termination to haste is disconnecting from relatives. The ones that repel (the answering of) prayer and darken the atmosphere is disobedience to parents.
