The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If a person commits a heinous sin and then repents to Allah, will he be punished on the Day of Judgment and exposed before the people?
The Shaykh:
If he repents with a valid repentance and rectifies his deeds thereafter, becoming upright, then Allah will accept his repentance. If he has money belonging to people, he must pay it to them. Part of completing the repentance is returning injustices and stolen goods to their owners.
The presenter:
Please proceed with this matter.
The Shaykh:
If he does not find them, he does not give it in charity to the needy. Yes.
