Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Dear Brother Burhan....Salam O Elekeikum

I have comitted A Very Big Sin That is Fornication at the age of 16. (Now I am 21) My Ex boyfriend was A Latino Asshole And I am a Paki Origin. I realized that my ex boyfriend was cheating upon me and When I saw it with my own eyes, In order to take REVENGE I slept with so many guys. After 2 years I realized, that I was not actually taking Revenge from him. I was Actually Commiting a sin. When I came to realize this, I fell on my prayer mat and cried to The Lord for him to forgive me. I used to cry a lot and from that day I have started praying 5 times a day and I read the Quran Twice. I was REPENTING.

I have been repenting for almost 1 year now and All of a sudden I met this Man I am kind of in love with and he says he wants to marry me too. I met him Alone and Satan came into my thoughts and The Guy and I did very dirty things. It was almost Sex. When I met him, I never wanted to make out with him, However Like I said I was afraid of God, but When I was alone with this guy, My thoughts changed and It was almost sex we had. Actually You can say I fornicated again because I sat on top of his thingy half way. Later on the same night when I said Goodnight to him, I was so exhausted and tired and I met a very good looking guy on my way home. He asked me for a kiss, and I let him kiss me. I feel like I cheated This Guy I am actually dating.

I feel so bad now. I came home, Had a shower and Then Prayed the ISHA prayer and then I begged Allah to Forgive me again...

So this is the second time I am repenting. I feel very guilty of what I recently did. I have cried a lot...However I am not sure if The Lord will forgive me.

I mean, I committed myself to one man, And Later on the same night, I was so desperate and I let this other man kiss me. I feel like Such a whore.

I don`t think I want to see any man alone again cause Satan will be with me.

Will allah Accept my Repentance again? Is God Merciful? I have no intensions of committing this sin again, however I want Allah to Guide me and help me forever. I repented before and broke my repentance....OH MY GOD i am such a terrible person. I feel so BAD. I don`t know how I will Face To The Lord after I die. Please answer me the soonest and let me know if Allah Will forgive me For what I did?

I also want a WAZEEFA or sumthing I can read on a Tasbee. I want to Bewitch this man I am currently dating who wants to marry me, So He can Marry me The SOONEST so I do not commit another sin on and on. I think Marriage is the solution to my problem, since I am no more a virgin from the past 5 years, I feel desperate. I am Really Tired of masturbating every week in order not to commit Fornication, However I just Fornicated again...

Please Give me a Dua So I can Bewitch this Man so he can marry me the soonest and we live a happy life forever.

Thank You For Doing Such a Great Job Helping and Answering People`s Questions. I pray to Allah That he gives you whatever You wish for and makes you happy forever in this world and the hereafter.

PLEASE supplicate to Allah that he gives me What I really Want. Just put me in your supplications ONCE. That would mean so much to me....

God Bless and Hope To hear from you the SOONEST please.

Love From Your Sister in Islam.

Answer:

Repentance

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Your Question: So this is the second time I am repenting. I feel very guilty of what I recently did. I have cried a lot...However I am not sure if The Lord will forgive me.
Dear and beloved sister in Islam, whatever deeds one might have done in one’s past, if one turns to Allah Subhanah in sincere Taubah and seeks forgiveness, The Lord Most Merciful has promised in His Holy Quran that He will forgive all the sins of such a believer, even if one has committed the gravest sin of all: ‘Shirk’! Not only that, our Lord is so Merciful and Generous, that He not only He forgives the sins of the truly repentant believers, He changes their evil deeds done into good deeds!

The conditions or ways to seek sincere Taubah or Repentance from the Merciful Lord are:

One is aware that he has sinned, and feels sorry and ashamed at his sin.

Makes a solemn covenant and promise with Allah that he will not repeat his sin again.

Turns to Allah and seeks forgiveness, before he has met with his appointment of death.

Is a believer and does righteous good deeds thereafter.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 39 Surah Zumur verses 53-54: (O Prophet) say: “O My servants who have wronged their own souls….Do not despair of Allah’s Mercy! Surely, Allah forgives all sins. He indeed is the All Forgiving, All Merciful. Return to your Lord and submit to Him before the scourge overtakes you; for then you may get no help from anywhere.”

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imraan verse 135-136: Allah likes such good people very much, who, if ever they commit a base deed or wrong their own soul by the commission of a sin, remember Allah instantly, and ask for forgiveness from Him for their shortcomings. For who, but Allah, can forgive sins? (And Allah loves those) who do not knowingly persist in the wrongs they did. These will be rewarded with forgiveness from Allah, and with Gardens beneath which canals flow, and they will reside therein forever! How excellent is the reward of those who do good deeds!

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 25 Surah Furqaan verses 63-71: The (true) servants of the Merciful are those who walk humbly on the earth. When the ignorant people behave insolently towards them, they say, “Peace to you”; (And those) who pass their nights in prostrating themselves and standing before their Lord and pray, “O our Lord, save us from the torment of Hell, for its torment is killing! It is an evil abode, and an evil resting place”. (And those) who, when they spend are neither extravagant, nor miserly, but keep the golden mean between the two extremes. (And those) who do not invoke any god but Allah Alone, nor kill a soul unjustly, which Allah has forbidden, nor commit adultery… He who does this shall be punished for his sin, and his torment shall be doubled on the Day of Resurrection, and he shall abide in a state of ignominy; EXCEPT THE ONE WHO MAY HAVE REPENTED (AFTER THOSE SINS), AND HAVE BELIEVED AND DONE RIGHTEOUS DEEDS. For then, Allah will change his evil deeds into good deeds, and He is very Forgiving and Merciful. In fact, one who repents and does righteous deeds, returns to Allah as one rightly should!

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah Anaam verse 54: When those come to you who believe in Our Signs, say: "Peace be on you! Your Lord had inscribed for Himself (the rule of) Mercy. Verily if any of you did evil in ignorance, and thereafter repented and amended (his conduct), Lo! He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."

Your Statement: However I am not sure if The Lord will forgive me.
The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: ‘All of the children of Adam are sinners; and the best (or most loved) sinners in the sight of Allah are those who turn to Him in sincere repentance.’

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 2339 Narrated by Abu Sa'id

Allah's Messenger (saws) said that the Shaytaan said, "By Thy Might, my Lord, I shall continue to lead Thy servants astray as long as their spirits are in their bodies." The Lord, Who is Great and Glorious, replied, "By My Might, Glory and Exalted Station, I shall continue to pardon them as long as they ask My forgiveness."

Sahih Muslim Hadith 6622 Narrated by Abu Hurayrah

Allah's Messenger (saws) said: ‘By Him in Whose Hand is my life, if you were not to commit sin, Allah would sweep you out of existence and He would replace (you by) those people who would commit sin and seek forgiveness from Allah, so that He may pardon them.’

My dear and beloved sister in Islam, it was never the mission or intention in the creation of man that he would not commit sin and remain faultless; for every human being (save the Prophets of Allah) are inclined to temptation and sin!

But the thing that separates the righteous from the unrighteous is that when one is tempted by the Shaytaan and/or swayed by their temptations and emotions, and in their ignorance transgresses the boundaries of sin, the unrighteous stay steadfast in his transgression….but the righteous realize their error and immediately turns back to his Lord, and in absolute humility and fear and hope seeks sincere repentance from their Lord for their transgression.

Hadith Qudsi 34

The Messenger of Allah (saws) said that Allah Subhanah, The High and Exalted He is says: ‘O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me, I shall forgive you for what you have done, and I shall not mind. O son of Adam, were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you. O son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the earth and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness nearly as great at it.’

My dear and beloved sister in Islam, never never ever despair of the Mercy of your Lord Most Merciful, and believe it with absolute certainty and conviction, that your Merciful Lord is always willing to forgive the past sins of His repentant slaves, regardless of how many sins he/she might have committed: provided the person turns to Him in sincere repentance and subsequently makes a solemn covenant with Him to amend his conduct. It is expected that one will find the Lord Most Merciful, Oft-Forgiving.

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 2357 Narrated by Abdullah ibn Mas'ud

Allah's Messenger (saws) said, "He who repents of a sin is like him who has committed no sin!"

Your Question: Will allah Accept my Repentance again? Is God Merciful? I have no intensions of committing this sin again, however I want Allah to Guide me and help me forever. I repented before and broke my repentance....OH MY GOD i am such a terrible person. I feel so BAD. I don`t know how I will Face To The Lord after I die. Please answer me the soonest and let me know if Allah Will forgive me For what I did?
Hadith Qudsi Hadith Qudsi 33

The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: ‘A servant [of Allah] committed a sin and said: ‘O Allah, forgive me my sin.’ And He (Glorified and Exalted be He) said: ‘My servant has committed a sin and has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them!’ Then he sinned again and said: ‘O Lord, forgive me my sin.’ And He (Glorified and Exalted be He) said: ‘My servant has committed a sin and has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them!’ Then he sinned again and said: ‘O Lord, forgive me my sin.’ And He (Glorified and Exalted be He) said: ‘My servant has committed a sin and has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for sins. Do what you wish, for I have forgiven you!’

If one has sinned and sought sincere forgiveness for their sin, made a sincere covenant with their Lord never ever to indulge in that sin again, and tried their best to abstain from that sin….but found themselves in a situation whereby they were tempted and swayed by the Shaytaan to commit the same sin again, the Messenger of Allah (saws) guided the believers to seek sincere repentance from their Lord Most Merciful again. It is expected that they will find their Lord Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imraan verse 135-136: Allah likes such good people very much, who, if ever they commit a base deed or wrong their own soul by the commission of a sin, remember Allah instantly, and ask for forgiveness from Him for their shortcomings. For who, but Allah, can forgive sins? (And Allah loves those) who do not knowingly persist in the wrongs they did. These will be rewarded with forgiveness from Allah, and with Gardens beneath which canals flow, and they will reside therein forever! How excellent is the reward of those who do good deeds!

The ones whom Allah does not love are those who knowingly persist in their sins, and plan to commit sin after sin with the intention to get it forgiven by seeking repentance! Such committed evil-doers only beguile themselves and try to make a mockery of the Mercy and Benevolence of Allah Subhanah!

Your Question: I also want a WAZEEFA or sumthing I can read on a Tasbee. I want to Bewitch this man I am currently dating who wants to marry me, So He can Marry me Please Give me a Dua So I can Bewitch this Man so he can marry me the soonest and we live a happy life forever.

Dear and beloved Sister, the deen and way of life called Al-Islam does not guide or teach some ‘voodoo’ or ‘charm’ or ‘chant’ whereby one recites something and another is ‘bewitched’; but rather this deen guides to the Straight Path of submission to our Lord Creator, Allah Subhanah and His Mercy.

Rather than try to ‘bewitch’ someone, it is more fitting and appropriate for a believer to implore and supplicate their Lord for something they desire in the manner taught by the Messenger of Allah (saws):

“O Allah! I seek Your guidance (in making a choice) by virtue of Your
knowledge, and I seek ability by virtue of Your power, and I ask You of Your
great bounty. You have power, I have none. And You know, I know not. You are
the Knower of hidden things.
O Allah! If in Your knowledge, (this matter) is good for my religion, my
livelihood and my affairs; immediate and in the distant, then ordain for me,
make it easy for me and bless it for me. And if in Your knowledge, (this
matter) is bad for my religion, my livelihood and my affairs; immediate and
in the distant, then turn it away from me, and turn me away from it. And
ordain for me the good wherever it be and make me pleased with it”.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your Brother in Islam,

Burhan
