assalam alaikum wa rahmit Allahi wa barakatu

i was reading hadith the other day and i came across this hadith that made me think for about half an hour. it's from sahih-al bukhari

Volume 4, Book 54, Number 445:
Narrated Abu Dhar:

The Prophet said, "Gabriel said to me, 'Whoever amongst your followers die without having worshipped others besides Allah, will enter Paradise (or will not enter the (Hell) Fire)." The Prophet asked. "Even if he has committed illegal sexual intercourse or theft?" He replied, "Even then."

i was just wondering, did Allah make this law so more of his servants can be saved from the hell-fire, because Allah knows the future, and if you look around zina is like everywhere, can i get this interpratation from you because you are a scholar and you probably know more than me.

may Allah bless you and your family
jazak Allah khairun

As Saalamu Alaikoum,

Praise be to Allah.

The Prophet said, "Gabriel said to me, 'Whoever amongst your followers die without having worshipped others besides Allah, will enter Paradise (or will not enter the (Hell) Fire)." The Prophet asked. "Even if he has committed illegal sexual intercourse or theft?" He replied, "Even then."

This Hadith talks about how anyone with a grain of faith in Allah will be taken out of hell. Allah forgives all sins except shirk. If anyone truly believes there is only one God and he is Allah and Muhammad is his apostle, he will eventually be entered into paradise. He may be in hell for a time to pay for whatver sins he commited such as Zina, but eventually he will be lifted into paradise.

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
