Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is there a report that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) has barred repentance from every innovator? And is this evidence that the innovator has no repentance?

Answer:
He has repentance. If he repents to Allah, Allah accepts his repentance. The polytheist and the disbeliever, and the atheist, if they repent, Allah accepts their repentance. How much more so the innovator? Repentance wipes out what came before it. Yes.
