Repentance (Taubah)

 

▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄

Almighty Allah states in the Qur'an


O Believers ! Turn towards Allah's Presence in perfect and most sincere repentance.

 Your Lord will certainly remove your sins from you and admit you to the Gardens with streams flowing under them.

 

{Chapter 66: Verse 8}

And that you should seek forgiveness from your Lord, then submit your repentance before Him (with true heart).

 

 He will keep you glad and gratified with an

 

excellent provision till an appointed term,

 

and will reward for merit everyone enjoying me

 

(i.e. will bestow reward and ranks corresponding to

 

 one's amount of righteous deeds and dedicated services).

 

 And if you turn away, then I fear for you the

 

 torment of a Mighty Day.

 

 {Surah Hud Chpater 11 : Verse 3}

What is Repentance ?


▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄


A Hadith states,

Regret is repentance

 

Sunan Ibn-e-Maja,Hadith 4252,V4 P492 }

Remorse(nadamah) is the turning of the

 

heart,in sorrow and regret,away from

 

something which the servant has

 

committed,and which angers Almighty

 

Allah,such as sins or the neglect of

 

obligatory acts.It may also occur following

 

an excessive involvement in permissible

 

pleasures or the neglect of supererogatory

 

devotions.A sincere remorse is one which

 

leads to persevering in earnest,And

 

Avoiding neglectfulness.When sound,it

 

includes Nearly All The Conditions Of

 

Repentance-Tawba which is why

 

The Prophet (PBUH) Has Said,May

 

Blessings And Peace Be upon Him:

 

              'Remorse is repentance'.

Those Who Are Remorseful About their

 

Misbehaviour,But Still persist in it,Are

 

Only jesting,And their Remorse will not

 

Avail Them.Seeking Forgiveness-istighfar

 

means asking Almighty Allah To forgive,

 

Which in Turn means His concealing the

 

misdeed [from the eyes of others] .

 

When Almighty Allah,By His Grace,Forgives

 

A Sin,He neither exposes its doer to shame,

 

nor punishes him for it,Whether in this

 

world or in the next.The highest kind of

 

forgiveness is for Almighty Allahto place a

 

veil,A Barrier,Between the servant and

 

sins,Until it is as though he were free of them.

What Are The Conditions Of True Repentance ?
▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄

Almighty Allah accepts repentance if it is

 

sincere(If the sinner includes regret

 

(nadam)for what was done and resolve

 

(azm)not to do it again.If you commit a

 

sin,then think of it as bad.You should feel

 

ashamed of committing the sin.Convince

 

yourself and be committed that you will not

 

do this sin ever again.Add to this,feeling of

 

remorse and shame together with a firm

 

intention never to repeat the sin.The origin

 

of repentance is turning towards Allah.

 

It has four conditions: 

 

(1) Acceptance of having committed the sin, 

 

(2)Regret and


(3) Intention to stop. 


(4) If the sin requires compensation,then

 

this is compulsory.For example,A Person

 

who has mised any salah must Do Qada.

 

And If The sin involves another person,

 

the person who has sinned must fix the

 

wrong that he or she has done to someone.

 

 If we have said bad things,slandered

 

someone or backbit someone or stolen from

 

 or hurt another in any way, we have to

 

 ask the person who is wronged for

 

forgiveness if possible,

 

 or somehow reverse the harm.

      Repentance of Sinner from Bani Israel 
▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Radi Allah Anhu)

 

reported Allah's Messenger (sal-allahu-

 

alleihi-wasallam) as saying:

 

 "There was a person before you who had

 

killed ninety-nine persons and then made

 

 an inquiry about the learned persons of

 

the world (who could show him the way to

 

 salvation). He was directed to a monk.

 

He came to him and told him that he had

 

 killed ninety-nine persons and asked him

 

 whether there was any scope for his

 

repentance to be accepted.

 

He said: No. He killed him also and thus

 

completed one hundred.

 

He then asked about the learned persons

 

of the earth and he was directed to a

 

scholar, and he told him that he had killed

 

one hundred persons and asked him

 

whether there was any scope for his

 

repentance to be accepted. He said:

 

 "Yes; what stands between you and the

 

repentance?

 

You better go to such and such land; there

 

are people devoted to prayer and worship

 

and you also worship along with them and

 

do not come to the land of yours since it was

 

an evil land (for you)."

 

 

So he went away and he had hardly

 

covered half the distance when death came

 

to him and there was a dispute between

 

the angels of mercy and the angels of

 

punishment. The angels of mercy said:

 

"This man has come as a penitent and remorseful to Allah"

 

and the angels of punishment said:

 

"He has done no good at all.

 

"Then there came another angel in the

 

form of a human being in order to decide

 

between them. He said: You measure the

 

land to which he has drawn near. They

 

measured it and found him nearer to the

 

land where he intended to go (the land of piety),

 

and so the angels of mercy took possession of it.

Dua of Repentance from Quran
▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄

 

... 'O our Lord! We have wronged our souls.

 

And if You do not forgive us and have mercy

 

on us, we shall certainly be among the

 

losers.'

 

{Surah A'raf Chapter 7 : Verse 23}
