◇بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم◇
Abu Hurayrah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say:
" All of my ummah will be forgiven except those who sin openly. It is a part of sinning openly when a man does something at night, then the following morning when Allah has concealed his sin, he says, 'O So and so, I did such and such last night,' when all night his Lord has concealed him and the next morning he uncovers what Allah had concealed. "
(Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5721; Muslim, 2990).
Speaking about your sin and flaunting it openly in front of your friends is impermissible, and is a major sin. It is one of the ways of spreading immorality among the Muslims, encouraging evil and tempting others to do similar things.
It also means that one does not take sin seriously and regards it as insignificant, and that the sinner is damaging his own reputation and exposing his honour to the slander of others.
Islam seeks to put people off from doing such things in the strongest possible terms. So,don't reveal your sins, keep it in between you and the Almighty & make sincere tauba.
