Do not despair! Repent NOW!

On the authority of Anas (ra), who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) say: "Allah the Almighty said:
'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 as it.'" (Hadith - Qudsi 34)


Sincere repentance in the words of the scholars is "to uproot oneself from sin at present, to resolve not to repeat it in the future and to feel remorse over its occurrence in the past. Then, if someone's right has been violated, one should return his due"




May Allah show us all the right path and save us from the troubles of this Duniya and Akhira, forgive our sins and that of our family while we are still alive in this Duniya, forgive the sins of those among us who have passed away, help us iron out our differences and help us hold on strong to the rope of Allah, save us from arrogance and ignorance, make our deeds especially those of the last ones as the best of all and make the best day of our life when we meet You ya Rab - Allah huma Ameen.
